osteochondroma arising from the distal radius. (B,C) Common fibular nerve impingement. (B) Radiograph shows an osteochondroma arising from the

common peroneal nerve (white arrow) and associated fatty atrophy of the muscles in the anterior and lateral compartments of the proximal calf (black
arrows). (D) Large osteochondroma (*) arising from the posterior proximal tibia with a nodular and thick cartilage cap (white arrow). Biopsy showed
