ABSTRACT: Chondroblastoma is a benign chondroid neoplasm that predominantly occurs in the second decade of life. These tumors are characteristically centered in the epiphyses of long tubular bones and appear as, well demarcated radiolucent lesions. The diagnosis is confirmed by presence of mononuclear chondroblasts, which tend to lie individually like pebbles in contrast to the mononuclear cells of Giant cell tumor, which are spindle shaped and occur mostly in clusters.
