Congenital osteofibrous dysplasia of the tibia, associated with pseudoarthrosis of the ipsilateral fibula.
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe an otherwise normal male neonate who presented shortly after birth with rare congenital osteofibrous dysplasia of the right tibia associated with pseudoarthrosis of the ipsilateral fibula. The lesion was curetted, and the defect was packed with a fibular bone graft from the other leg. Histopathological examination was typical for osteofibrous dysplasia. The ipsilateral fibular pseudoarthrosis was observed with no active intervention. Seven years follow-up showed good functional recovery without recurrence of the lesion. The case is a new presentation of congenital osteofibrous dysplasia, and is presented to draw attention to this rare condition that must be considered in the differential diagnosis of congenital lesions of the tibia.

We experienced two patients with osteofibrous dysplasia of the ulna. Both of them showed typical radiographic findings of osteofibrous dysplasia, except for location. One patient underwent surgery at the age of 15 years to confirm the diagnosis histologically. Although the tumor recurred 5 months after the surgery, expansion of the lesion seemed to cease at the age of 25 years. In the other pat...

Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) is one of the most challenging problems confronting pediatric orthopedic surgery. Fifty percent of cases are associated with neurofibromatosis, ten percent with fibrous dysplasia or Campanacci’s osteofibrous dysplasia and forty percent are idiopathic. CPT has a tendency to refracture until skeletal maturity. Fractures can even occur in adults. The re...

متن کاملIsolated congenital anterolateral bowing of the fibula: a case report with 24 years follow-up.
Only very few cases of congenital anterolateral bowing of the fibula have been described in literature. We report a girl with congenital anterolateral bowing of the fibula with a 24 year follow-up. Asymptomatic bowing of her left leg below the knee was noted at the age of three years. Radiographs showed an isolated anterolateral bowing of the fibula with a normal ipsilateral tibia. Supervised n...
