Abstract
Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferations (BPOP), also known as Nora's lesions, are rare tumors occurring most commonly in the hands and feet. They are benign and rarely exhibit radiological evidence of cortical invasion. We report a case of BPOP showing atypical magnetic resonance imaging features that are inconsistent with BPOP and having a novel chromosomal aberration. We also review the BPOP cases in our regional benign bone tumor database. 4.
