chondromyxoid fibroma (cmf) is a rare benign cartilaginous tumor with a predilection for the bones of lower extremities and about one fourth of the tumors involve the foot.radiologically, an eccentric lytic lesion with well defined margins is seen in the metaphysis of the bone. we hereby, report an 18 yr old young male who presented to orthopedic outpatient department, jn medical college, aliga...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is the least common benign cartilaginous tumor, comprising less than 0.5 to 1% of all skeletal neoplasms. This subject was a 16-year-old female with a three-year history of pain involving the distal femoral metaphysis. This case showed an unusual feature: it was intracortical in location. Radiologic differential diagnosis included metaphyseal fibrous defect, perioste...

We describe the cytologic features of chondromyxoid fibroma in fine-needle aspiration biopsy specimens in 4 patients. We analyzed rapid Romanowsky– and Papanicolaou-stained slides with a respect to overall cellularity, the presence of hypercellular chondromyxoid fragments (HCFs), nuclear atypia, cytoplasmic features, and the presence of giant cells. The most consistent and diagnostically useful...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is one of the rarest benign tumors of cartilaginous origin. It accounts for less than 0.5% of bone tumors and less than two percent of benign bone tumors. It is composed of a mixture of chondroid, myxoid, and fibrous tissues. The diagnosis of CMF depends upon its characteristic histological appearance like a lobular pattern with stellate-shaped cells in a myxoid or c...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a rare benign primary tumor which usually affects the metaphyses of the long bone of the lower extremities in childhood and young adults. Rarely, CMF occurs in the skull base and parasinuses, which may be difficult to distinguish from chondrosarcoma or chordoma and other tumors in the head. It is composed of chondroid, myxoid, and fibrous tissue growth in a lobula...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a benign tumor which usually occurs in skeletal long bones. Its presence in zygoma is extremely rare. The patient was a 47-year-old female, with chief complaint of painful swelling in the left side of zygoma since 1 month ago after a long-lasting painless swelling for about 15 years. Computed tomography scan showed an osteolytic lesion, in the body of left zygomat...

Chondromyxoid fibroma; a rarely found tumor, contributing <1% of all primary bone neoplasm. We reported 4-year female child with 1-year history nasal obstruction and facial swelling. Large enhanced lesion amorphous densities spreading into the right cribriform plate floor sphenoid sinus, laterallyinto lamina papyracea, inferolaterally medial wall maxillary posteriorly nasopharynx superior as...

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a relatively rare bone tumor that was first described by Jaffe and Lichtenstein in 1948. CMF of the sinonasal tract is very rare. A 28-year-old male presented with long-standing, intermittent, pulsatile pain in the right temporal area. A computed tomography scan showed a 20 × 19 mm round, bony density in the right ethmoid sinus with fluid collection in the ethmoid...

BACKGROUND Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a rare bone tumor, accounting for less than 0.5% of all bone tumors, with a predilection for lower extremity bone metaphyses. Involvement of the head and neck is extremely rare, with only 3 cases reported in the nasal septum in world literature. METHODS This is a case report of a CMF in the nasal septum of a 49-year-old woman with a 6-month history of...
