Abstract

Osteochondromas (OC) are the most common benign bone tumors, most commonly near the knee joint, and are generally asymptomatic, rarely causing nerve compression. A rare case of a solitary OC complicated with compression of the external popliteal sciatic nerve (SPE) is reported in the head of the fibula. The surgical excision of the tumor and neurolysis were performed, with good clinical and radiological progression, without signs of long-term recurrence.
