A 5 yr old girl presented with small painless hard swelling in the right 5th costal cartilage area.
2D MDCT was inconclusive. A first year PG casually suggested a 3D volume rendering to be done. So we did a 3D reconstruction and it revealed an expansile lytic mass in the right 5th costal cartilage near the costochondral junction.
Diagnosis : Benign tumour
DD
1. Hyperostosis
2. Hemangioma
3. Solitary benign enchondroma
