Das desmoplastische Fibrom der Fibula - Die schwierige klinische, radiologische und histologische Diagnose -

Abstract: Desmoplastic fibroma of bone is a rare benign tumor that is made up of wavy fibroblasts and abundant collagenous tissue. The case of a 18-year-old patient is presented with a two months history of weightbearing pain in the left knee. Neither native x-ray, CT nor MRI could detect the kind of tumor. The histological findings lead finally to the diagnosis of a desmoplastic fibroma. Wide resection prevented recurrence of the tumor for 8 1/2 years until now. Considering the semi-malignant character of the desmoplas… Show more

“…Sex predilection remains unclear while some authors report higher rates of DF in female patients [6] and others report no detectable sex predilection [7]. DF can theoretically affect any bone, but the majority of cases occur in the mandible (22%) and the metaphysis of long bones (56%) [8]. The pelvis accounts for 12% of cases.…”
