An enostosis or bone island is a benign bony lesion that is almost diagnosed based on clinical and radiologic defining characteristics. One of the known diagnostic procedures in the evaluation of enostosis is bone scintigraphy. Generally, we don’t expect to see increased uptake by enostosis in the bone scan. Herein we present a 52-year-old lady who was suffering from chronic low back pain that ...

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...

simple bone cysts are usual, benign, fluid-filled, cystic lesions that often occur in the metaphysis of the long bones and are rarely detected in vertebrae. a case of a simple bone cyst in the body of the fifth lumbar vertebra in a 28-year-old woman with complaint of intermittent low back pain is described. according to the radiologic findings, the lesion was detected as a simple bone cyst, and...

Giant cell tumour (GCT) is a benign, locally aggressive tumour of the bone that accounts for 5% of primary bone tumours and 21% of benign bone tumours. This tumour more commonly presents as a single (solitary) lesion; however, it may appear with multiple (multicentric) lesions in less than 1% of the cases. According to the literature, 1-9% of solitary GCTs metastasizes to the lung, more commonl...

aneurysmal bone cyst (abc) is blood filled expansile cystic lesion that most commonly occurs in patients during the second decade of their lives. traditionally it has been described as a benign lesion but can be locally aggressive and result in the destruction of the involved bone. treatment methods include surgical excision and curettage with or without bone grafting. we report a proximal femu...

Introdouction: Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous lesion that affects craniofacial bones including the maxilla and mandible. In the most cases of fibrous dysplasia of facial bones, radiographic findings represent lucent or mixed radiolucent-radiopaque lesion with ill-defined borders and gradual blending of its border with adjacent bone . In this presentation, a patient suffering ...

the aim of this study was to assess the value of 99mtc-hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (mibi) scintigraphy in patients with clinical and radiologic features of primary or metastatic musculoskeletal tumors. methods: the scintigraphic findings for 84 patients were compared with the surgical and histologic findings. each patient underwent three-phase bone scan with 99mtc-methylene diphosphonat...
