“…Osteochondroma accounts for 35-46% of all benign bone neoplasms. The incidence of osteochondroma under the age of 30 is higher in men compared to women [ 1 , 2 ]. The outgrowth is usually found on the metaphyseal region of long bones such as the tibia, humerus, and distal femur, accounting for 90% of all exostoses [ 2 , 3 ].…”

Osteochondroma, often referred to as exostosis, is the most common benign bone tumor characterized by a bony protuberance surrounded by a cartilaginous surface. Most osteochondromas are found on the metaphysis of long bones, with the dorsal aspect of the scapula being a rare site of occurrence for an exostosis. Radiographic imaging, preferably through MRI or CT, assists in the identification of benign growth; however, a definitive diagnosis requires a biopsy. Open surgical resection and arthroscopic excision are the definitive treatment modalities of the nidus. Postoperative care requires immobilization of the limb for two months, with at least four months being the appropriate timeline for complete recovery.

“…Osteochondromas, including those occurring at the superomedial angle of the scapula, often present in a similar way across patients. These benign bone tumors typically develop during childhood or adolescence and can lead to skeletal deformities or complications related to surrounding soft tissue structures [4]. The clinical presentation often includes palpable mass, pain, limited range of motion, and mechanical symptoms such as snapping or popping.…”

“…While nerve injuries are the most common cause of scapular winging, bony abnormalities such as osteochondromas can also contribute to its development. The occurrence of osteochondromas in the scapula, particularly in the superomedial angle, is considered rare [4]. This article presents a unique case of superomedial scapular angle osteochondroma associated with scapular winging in a young female patient and provides a comprehensive review of the literature to enhance our understanding of this rare occurrence.…”

(1) Background: Osteochondromas are the most common benign bone tumors, primarily found in long bones, while scapular osteochondromas are rare and account for less than 1% of all osteochondromas. (2) Methods: We present a case of a young female patient with a unique presentation of scapular osteochondroma. The patient exhibited superomedial scapula angle osteochondroma with winging, a rare manifestation of scapular osteochondroma. The patient had a slow-growing mass on the left scapula for several years. Physical examination revealed a visible deformity with significant winging of the scapula. Imaging studies demonstrated a large osteochondroma arising from the superomedial angle of the left scapula, with a bony stalk. (3) Results: Surgical excision was performed, and histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of osteochondroma. Following the surgery, the patient experienced a significant improvement in scapular winging. A comprehensive literature review revealed only a limited number of reported cases of scapular osteochondroma with winging, underscoring the significance of this case report as a valuable addition to the existing literature. The diagnosis of scapular osteochondroma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with a scapular mass, particularly when associated with winging. Surgical excision is the recommended treatment, and complete excision is crucial to prevent recurrence. (4) Conclusions: This case report highlights a rare presentation of scapular osteochondroma with winging and emphasizes the importance of considering this diagnosis in patients with scapular masses accompanied by winging. The successful surgical intervention in our case resulted in significant improvement. Clinicians should be aware of this entity and consider prompt surgical intervention for complete excision, ensuring optimal patient outcomes and preventing recurrence. Further research and additional case reports are necessary to enhance our understanding of scapular osteochondroma and its varied clinical presentations. Furthermore, comprehensive studies involving larger patient cohorts are necessary to explore the full spectrum of clinical presentations of scapular osteochondromas. By documenting and analyzing a wider range of cases, including variations in tumor location, size, and associated symptoms, researchers can identify patterns and establish more accurate diagnostic criteria. This will facilitate early detection and appropriate management of scapular osteochondromas, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Key Clinical MessageOsteochondroma on the ventral scapula is clinically rare and can incur pseudo‐winged scapula and snapping syndrome if not treated. In this regard, surgical excision is suggested, if possible, with a minimally invasive approach to accelerate physical recovery.AbstractOsteochondroma is a common benign bone tumor, characterized by a cartilage‐capped osseous protuberance with cortical and medullary continuity with the underlying native bone. Osteochondroma is commonly found in the long bones, such as the proximal humerus, distal femur, and proximal tibia, but rarely seen in flat bones. We report a case of pedunculated osteochondroma on the ventral surface of left scapula in a young adult woman. She presented with a slight pseudo‐winged scapula, occasional pain, and snapping sound with motion of the left shoulder. The tumor was surgically resected using a minimally invasive approach, and an excellent outcome was obtained.
