“…Osteochondroma is a developmental physeal growth defect which presents as a pedunculated or sessile cartilage-capped bony projection arising on the external surface of the bone containing a marrow cavity that is in continuity with that of the underlying bone and grows through endochondral ossification beneath the periosteum [ 5 , 6 , 7 ].…”

Introduction: Winging of scapula is defined as a failure of dynamic stabilizing structures that anchor the scapula to the chest wall, leading to prominence of the medial border of scapula. It could be primary, secondary, or voluntary. Primary winging could be true winging due to neuromuscular causes or pseudo-winging due to osseous or soft-tissue masses. A scapular osteochondroma is a very rare presentation site and causes pseudo-winging leading to pushing away of the scapula away from the chest wall presenting as medial border prominence. Here, we are reporting a rare case of a scapular osteochondroma causing a pseudo-winging of the scapula. Case Report: A 2-year-old male child presented with painless, immobile, and non-fluctuant swelling over the left scapular region, insidious in onset and progressive in nature. On examination, a non-tender, immobile swelling was palpable with a painless and unrestricted range of motion at the shoulder joint. After evaluating radiographs and CT scan, the patient was diagnosed to have a ventral scapular osteochondroma leading to pseudo-winging of the scapula. Conclusion: Despite the rarity, a differential diagnosis of a scapular osteochondroma should be kept in mind while examining a young child presenting with a winged scapula. Keywords: Scapula, osteochondroma, pseudo-winging.

“…Scapular osteochondroma is the most common benign bone tumor [ 5 ]. Scapular osteochondroma might be asymptomatic, but due to growth nature of the tumor until skeletal maturity symptoms could develop with time [ 6 ]. Symptoms are directly correlated with the size of osteochondroma and it is related to mass effect which includes pain explained by fracture, bursa formation or impingement of tendons or nerves [ 7 ].…”

Introduction and importance Multiple etiologies for snapping shoulder syndrome have been described in the existing literature. Scapular osteochondroma is considered as a rare etiology and bilateral scapular osteochondroma have rarely been reported to date. Patient can present with discomfort, pain and crepitation. Multiple surgical methods were described and the patient underwent two different surgical methods with preferable outcome for arthroscopic side. Case presentation 24 year-old male who is known case of Multiple Hereditary Exostosis (MHE) since childhood presented with bilateral shoulder pain and snapping scapula. Computed tomography demonstrated bilateral ventral scapular osteochondromas. One side treated with open excision and other side with arthroscopic excision. Clinical discussion Patient exhibited resolution of symptoms, restoration of function on both sides, but he reported cosmetic preference over arthroscopic side and faster recovery from surgery as well in terms of pain resolution and rehabilitation. Conclusion Osteochondroma should by one of differential diagnoses for snapping shoulder syndrome. Despite arthroscopic excision is technically demanding, it carries better outcome compared to open excision.

“…La Organización Mundial de la Salud describe al osteocondroma como el tumor benigno más común, 29 con una incidencia aproximada de 3% en la población general y 30% en todos los tumores benignos óseos. 30 Los osteocondromas incrementan de tamaño con el esqueleto en crecimiento, pero de manera usual cesan el crecimiento con la madurez esquelética. 26 Éstos son lesiones asintomáticas con afección más frecuente en rodilla, húmero proximal y pelvis, pero raramente surgen en huesos planos, incluyendo la superficie anterior de la escápula.…”
