Sorry, my error, it's enostosis not enchondroma, although the latter are also called bone islands.

neutral  Lirka: But doesn't enchondroma originate from cartilage?Here "compatta" means compact bone, IMO. Further, the spine is not a typical location for it.

  -> yes, it's an enostosis rather than enchondroma - but bone island is still correct
