Coloured X-ray in front view of the left femur of a patient showing enchondromatosis (lower frame). Also known as Ollier's disease, enchondromatosis is a rare bone growth disorder where masses of cartilage form in bones. The growths can appear in childhood. In this case, a tumour in the femur has become cancerous (malignant), and the lower leg has been amputated.
