Enchondroma

Enchondroma is a benign bone tumor that commonly affects the small bones in the hands and feet. It grows slowly and may not cause any symptoms but, in some cases, can weaken the bone and increase the risk of fractures or deformities. Rarely, it may transform into a malignant tumor. Diagnosis involves imaging tests, and treatment may include surgery or other interventions depending on the tumor's size, location, and symptoms.
