Enchondromas generally occur in the
hand and uncommonly in the long
bones. Because
enchondromas are usually asymptomatic, most are discovered during diagnostic
radiology for another
disease. Here, we describe a case of
enchondroma in the right
humerus in a 79-year-old
female patient with concomitant
rotator cuff tear arthropathy. The
patient was initially hospitalized for prolonged
pain and pseudoparalysis of the right
shoulder. The condition, which was histologically confirmed as an
enchondroma in the proximal
humerus, was treated with
curettage and reverse total
shoulder arthroplasty. In this case
report, we present a rare case of an
enchondroma with combined
rotator cuff tear arthropathy.
