ABSTRACT
About 1% of primary bone tumours are chondroblastoma, which develop from secondary ossification centers of long bones, preferably. The scapula, clavicle, and acromion are the rarest sites for this tumour. The recurrence rate is 14-18%, depending on the site of origin. There are various treatment options, but extended curettage and bone grafting are the main treatment modalities for chondroblastoma. In cases of recurrence, marginal excision and wide local excision are the treatments used. Here we report a recurrent tumour in that location that was removed by wide local excision. After 2 years of follow-up, there were no signs or symptoms of recurrence noted. This case is notable for its rare site of occurrence and successful surgical management without any episodes of re-occurrence after a 2-year follow-up period.
