Abstract:
Osteochondroma (osteocartilaginous exostosis) is a rare tumour in the region of the mandibular condyle. Much confusion seems to exist in the literature in differentiating these tumours from condylar chondromas as well as from condylar hyperplasias. A case of condylar osteochondroma with a review of the literature is presented.
