Abstract
|
|
|
|
Desmoplastic fibroma of bone is a rare benign primary bone tumor that histologically resembles the extra-abdominal desmoid tumor of soft tissues. It is a nonmetastasizing, but locally aggressive tumor that is similar to a desmoid tumor of the soft tissues, and so it is considered “semimalignant”. According to a previous report on a series of bone tumors, the incidence rate of desmoplastic fibroma was 0.1-0.3%. Its rarity results in radiologists having a tendency of overlooking the possibility of desmoplastic fibroma of bone during the imaging readings. We report on the imaging findings of desmoplastic fibroma of bone with a review of the relevant literature.
