Osteochondroma, the most common benign tumor of the bone also known as exostosis, is a
rarity in the spine. It occurs in solitary or multiple forms. The multiple form is often hereditary
and is usually called hereditary multiple exostoses (HME). The precise diagnosis of spinal
osteochondroma is performed by CT and MRI.
We report a case of HME in a 17-year-old man with a positive family history. The tumor was
in continuity with L4 vertebra and the spinal canal stenosis was evident. The full recovery
was successful after tumor resection.
