“The tumor is eccentric, usually metaphyseal, but it may extend into the epiphysis or along the medullary cavity into the diaphysis.”

“Within the epiphysis of most sections, trabecular bone is frequently hypereosinophilic, and there is karyolysis and loss of osteocytes.”

“They surmised that the bone formation was caused by repetitive mechanical stress to the proximal humeral epiphysis during growth.”

“Total body or spinal radiation may compromise spinal growth through a direct effect on the epiphyses.”

“The skeleton is highly incomplete, consisting of hand and foot bones, epiphyses, ribs, vertebrae, the right ilium, and teeth.”

“Two months later an x ray film showed bilateral slipped capital femoral epiphyses of both hips.”
