Desmoplastic Fibroma of Bone in a Toe: Radiographic and MRI Findings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Desmoplastic fibroma is a rare benign primary bone tumor that is histologically similar to the soft tissue desmoid tumor. It most often involves the mandible, large long bone or iliac bone. Desmoplastic fibroma in a toe has been extremely rarely reported. Authors report a rare case of desmoplastic fibroma of bone occurring in the distal phalanx of a foot, with descriptions of the radiographic and MRI findings, correlation of the radiologic and pathologic findings, and discussion on the differential diagnosis of the tumor.

Desmoplastic Fibroma: A Case Report with Three Years of Clinical and Radiographic Observation and Review of the Literature
BACKGROUND Desmoplastic fibroma (DF) is an extremely rare locally aggressive bone tumor with an incidence of 0.11% of all primary bone tumors. The typical clinical presentation is pain and swelling above the affected area. The most common sites of involvement are the mandible and the metaphysis of long bones. Histologically and biologically, desmoplastic fibroma mimics extra-abdominal desmoid t...

Desmoplastic fibromas of bone has been described as a rare, non-metastasizing, locally aggressive, benign lesions that histologically resembles a desmoid tumour of the soft tissue [1,2]. It was initially described by Jaffe in 1958 who highlighted the histological resemblance to aggressive fibromatosis (desmoid tumour) [3]. Since his original description, approximately 150 case reports have been...

A 25-year-old female patient presented with a one-year history of b:union: pain, sclerotic change and skin pigmentation on the left big toe interphalangeal joint. Ulceration, poor healing and hyperkeratoses of the wound were noted post debridement. The plain film of the left foot incidentally showed m...
متن کاملCase report of intra-osseous fibroma: a study on odontogenic and desmoplastic fibromas with a review of the literature.
Intra-osseous fibromas of the jaw are classified by origin. Intra-osseous odontogenic fibromas have odontogenic epithelia, while desmoplastic fibromas do not. However, it is often difficult to determine the odontogenic origin for central fibromas. Three subjects with a diagnosis of intra-osseous fibroma were examined. Case 1 was a 35-year-old man found to have a panoramic radiograph from the ri...
متن کاملImaging Findings Of Desmoplastic Fibroma Rarely Involving The Clavicle: Case Report
Desmoplastic fibroma of bone is a rare locally aggressive, but non-metastatic tumor. In this case report, we present a desmoplastic fibroma in an unusual location, the clavicle. Desmoplastic fibroma involving the clavicle is extremely rare, with only 2 reported cases before 1985. We report the imaging findings of a desmoplastic fibroma of the clavicle with a review of the relevant literature.
