Enthesophyte
Abnormal bone growth at a tendon or ligament / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Enthesophytes are abnormal bony projections at the attachment of a tendon or ligament.[1] They are not to be confused with osteophytes, which are abnormal bony projections in joint spaces. Enthesophytes and osteophytes are bone responses for stress.[1]
