Patient's question:
Image: Fibrous dysplasia of the distal femur is visible on the X-ray. At first, I felt a little pain, but I didn't pay much attention to it. However, it became increasingly severe, to the point where I couldn't walk. After a thorough examination, I found out I had a tumor. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
In most cases, if you have osteochondromas, there should be no obvious symptoms. Unless the tumor locally affects nerves or blood vessels in the relevant area, it is recommended to carefully observe your symptoms and consider surgical removal of the osteochondroma if necessary. This removal is just a minor surgery and is not particularly serious, nor will it leave any aftereffects.
