Synonyms and keywords: Codman tumor; Codman's tumor; Codman tumour; Codmans tumor; Chondroblastomas; Benign chondroblastoma; Epiphyseal chondroblastoma

Overview

Historical Perspective

  • In 1928, Codman first described chondroblastoma as epiphyseal chondromatous giant cell tumors of the proximal humerus.
  • In 1942, Jaffe and Lichenstein later recognized it as a distinct entity due to its chondorid matrix.[1]

Classification

Chondroblastoma can be classified based on imaging findings.

Enneking (MSTS) Staging System

  • The Enneking surgical staging system (also known as the MSTS system) for benign musculoskeletal tumors based on radiographic characteristics of the tumor host margin.[2]
  • It is widely accepted and routinely used classification.
Stages Description
1 Latent: Well demarcated borders
2 Active: Indistinct borders
3 Aggressive: Indistinct borders

Pathophysiology

  • The exact pathogenesis of chondroblaroma is not fully understood.[3]
  • Various theories have been proposed concerning the pathogenesis of chondroblastomas:
    • Chondroblastoma tumors are of chondrogenic origin.[4]
    • Chondroblastoma arises from osteoid matrix–containing type I collagen and the absence of true cartilage matrix production (Type II collagen).[5]
    • chondroblastoma arises from an intraosseous proliferation of tendon sheath cells that have a predilection for chondroid formation.[6]
  • Chondroblastomas typically occur in the epiphyses of the long bones.
  • The bones often involved by epiphyseal chondroblastomas are femur, tibia, and humerus.[7]

Genetics

  • Chondroblastoma may have association with genetic abnormalities on chromosome 5 and 8.
