Overview

Patients of all age groups may develop enchondromas. Enchondromas affect men and women equally. The male to female ratio is 1 : 1. Periosteal chondromas commonly affect individuals of 20-30 years of age. Males are more commonly affected with periosteal chondromas than females.[1]

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • Patients of all age groups may develop enchondromas, although, the incidence of enchondroma peaks in the third and fourth decades of life.
  • Enchondromas affect men and women equally. The male to female ratio is 1 : 1.
  • Periosteal chondromas commonly affect individuals of 20-30 years of age. Males are more commonly affected with periosteal chondromas than females.[2]
  • The incidence of Ollier's disease is one individual in every 100,000.[3]
