Pathological fracture in fibrous dysplasia: a case report

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is described as a growth disorder characterized by the progressive replacement of normal bone elements fibrous-osseus tissue. Bones affected FD presented with weakening and prone to pathological fracture. We reported case in an 8-years-old boy, who came hospital pain upper right thigh after falling bumps his head foot. An X-ray revealed deformity diasteal scalloping radiolucency lesions on one-third proximal femur, greater trochanter, lesser complete transverse discontinuity distal deformity. No similar lesion was found other bones. Bone structure trabeculation area has decreased cortex thinning. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), size enlarged, hypointense T1WI inhomogeneous hyperintense T2WI. fracture rare case.
