Osteochondropathy refers to a disease ("-pathy") of the bone and cartilage.[https://books.google.com/books?id=V2cXAQAAMAAJ&dq=Osteochondropathy&pg=PA525 Acta Radiologica, Volume 3]. Isaac Marcus's Boktryckeri-Aktiebolag, 1925. 525.

However, it is more common to refer to these conditions as one of the following:

• chondropathy (disease of the cartilage)
• A bone disease is also called an "osteopathy", but because the term osteopathy is often used to describe a healthcare approach, use of the term can cause some confusion.
