Osteochondroma, often referred to as exostosis, is the most common benign bone tumor characterized by a bony protuberance surrounded by a cartilaginous surface. Most osteochondromas are found on the metaphysis of long bones, with the dorsal aspect of the scapula being a rare site of occurrence for an exostosis. Radiographic imaging, preferably through MRI or CT, assists in the identification of benign growth; however, a definitive diagnosis requires a biopsy. Open surgical resection and arthroscopic excision are the definitive treatment modalities of the nidus. Postoperative care requires immobilization of the limb for two months, with at least four months being the appropriate timeline for complete recovery.
骨软骨瘤，通常被称为外生骨疣，是最常见的良性骨肿瘤，其特征是有一个被软骨表面包围的骨性突起。大多数骨软骨瘤发生在长骨的干骺端，肩胛骨的背侧是外生骨疣罕见的发生部位。影像学检查，最好是通过MRI或CT，有助于识别良性生长；然而，明确诊断需要进行活检。开放手术切除和关节镜切除是病灶的确定性治疗方式。术后护理需要将肢体固定两个月，至少四个月是完全恢复的合适时间线。
