Abstract
This report describes the successful endoscopic treatment of an osteochondroma of the distal femur. We discuss the surgical technique and the case report of a distal femoral osteochondroma that was endoscopically resected without any complications. This technique allows performing a resection that involves minimum morbidity and a prompt functional recovery.
