Detailed explanation-1: -Periosteum vs endosteum and perichondrium The perichondrium is very similar to the periosteum. It covers the cartilage on the ends of your bones. In the same way the periosteum helps your bones grow and heal, the perichondrium has cells that stimulate new cartilage to grow in areas that need it.
