Description
Summary:Osteochondromyxoma (OMX) is an extremely rare bone tumor and has been classified by the World Health Organization as a benign chondrogenic bone tumor. The tumor can be associated with Carney complex which is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome. The clinical presentation of the patient depends primarily on the location and the size of the tumor. It has an excellent prognosis with complete surgical excision. Here, in this case, we present a young female patient diagnosed with OMX without carney complex and underwent complete endoscopic surgical excision.
