Chondromyxoid Fibroma of Great Toe: A Unique Case Report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is a rare bone tumour; classically occurring in the metaphyseal region of the long bones surrounding the knee. The small bones of the feet are also commonly involved. We report a case of Chondromyxoid fibroma of the proximal phalynx of the left great toe in a 25 year old male. The radiological appearance of a trabeculated lytic lesion with sclerotic margins raised the possibility of various other lesions including infections. However the typical microscopic picture of lobules of cartilage separated by fibrocellular tissue and scattered osteoclasts confirmed the diagnosis. This tumour was successfully treated with curettage and corticocancellous bone graft from iliac crest given via a dorsal incision and had no recurrence at 2 year follow up. In this article we present our experience with this case.
