In addition, this study presents the outcome of patients with enchondroma and low grade chondrosarcoma of the long bones who were treated with curettage (intralesional surgery).
Detailed description
The investigators retrospectively review the records of 65 patients with enchondroma and 37 patients with low grade chondrosarcoma of the limbs treated by curettage between 1988 and 2014 in a single Institution.
