Part8　TUMORS > Chapter 25　Benign Bone Tumors and Nonneoplastic Conditions Simulating Bone Tumors

 

This chapter discusses bony lesions that do not usually behave aggressively locally and that have never been shown to metastasize. Most are either asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic except when complications, such as a pathologic fracture, occur. Many are discovered incidentally (Table 25.1).
