Incidental enchondromas can be identified on 2.9% of routine MR knee examinations, most frequently in the distal femur (2.0%). This significant prevalence is much higher than in an autopsy series (0.2%), likely reflecting the increased sensitivity of MRI for detecting small lesions, and is important to recognize to avoid confusion with other pathologic entities.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Cervical ribs are congenital variants that are known to cause TOS or brachial plexopathy in up to 10% of the affected individuals. We investigated how often cervical ribs are present on cervical spine CT scans to determine the incidence in humans and the percentage of reported cervical ribs.
