ABSTRACT

Osteochondromas are the most common type of benign tumor of the skeleton. They most frequently affect the distal extremity of the femur, with the tibia being the second most commonly affected long bone. Vascular complications of these lesions are rare, but pseudoaneurysm formation is the most frequently reported of them. In this case report, we describe a case of compression of the popliteal neurovascular bundle by a tibial osteochondroma in a diabetic patient who had been admitted to hospital to treat an infected lesion on his left foot and complained of edema and paresthesia of the left lower limb.


Osteocondromas são as lesões tumorais benignas ósseas mais comuns. Acometem especialmente o fêmur em sua extremidade distal, sendo a tíbia o osso longo mais comumente afetado depois do fêmur. As complicações vasculares destas lesões são raras, sendo a formação de pseudoaneurismas a mais comum. Neste relato, descrevemos um caso de compressão do paquete vasculonervoso poplíteo por osteocondroma tibial em paciente diabético, com queixa de edema de perna e parestesia de membro inferior esquerdo, internado para tratamento de lesão infectada em pé esquerdo.
