Desmoplastic fibroma is a very rare benign bone tumor with local aggressiveness. We describe imaging findings in 2 cases with desmoplastic fibroma of the bone. One case had a desmoplastic fibroma in the right distal femur, showing bone destruction with sclerotic margins and inhomogeneous FDG uptake. The other case had a desmoplastic fibroma in the left ninth rib, showing progressive peripheral enhancement and increased 99m Tc-MDP uptake.
Isolated osseous Rosai-Dorfman disease is rare. We describe FDG PET/CT findings of solitary thoracic vertebral Rosai-Dorfman disease without extraosseous involvement. The vertebral lesion caused osteolytic destruction of the vertebral body and showed intense FDG uptake.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
