An 18-year-old man was referred to the authors' institution's thoracic cancer specialists for further consultation after abnormal findings were seen on chest radiograph.

Fibrocartilaginous dysplasia: a variant of fibrous dysplasia.

Eight cases of fibrous dysplasia having enchondroma-like areas (fibrocartilaginous dysplasia) are reported. Four patients were male, four were female. The patients' ages ranged from 8 to 18 years (mean = 11.3 years). In seven cases, the lesions were located at the proximal femur while one was at the tibial diaphysis. Histologically, large, well-defined, sharply demarcated islands of hyaline car...

Multifocal fibrous Dysplasia with enchondroma-like areas (Fibrocartilaginous Dysplasia)

Fibrocartilaginous dysplasia is a variant of fibrous dysplasia showing extensive cartilaginous differentiation (enchondroma-like areas). The amount of cartilage varies from case to case. This has been reported more commonly in polyostotic disease. We present a 19 year old boy who presented with multifocal osteolytic lesions involving right femoral neck and lower end of left fibula. Curettage of...

Focal Fibrocartilaginous Dysplasia in Distal Radius

Background: Focal fibrocartilaginous dysplasia (FFCD) is a benign lesion and has been reported as a cause of tibia vara in proximal tibia and distal of the femur. It is rare in upper extremity and few cases have been reported in the ulna and radius. Objectives: The aim of the study was to review and report the clinical course, radiographic presentation and treatment results of three cases of FF...
