Frontal and lateral radiographs of the right knee joint show a large well-defined exophytic bony outgrowth arising from the proximal metaphyseal end of the right fibula. The growth demonstrates continuity of cortical components with the parent bone. There is also a bony outgrowth at the distal meta-diaphysis of the right femur and the proximal meta-diaphysis of the right tibia.
