  • Symptomatic monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the thoracic spine.
    Spine, 1998
    Co-Authors: Michinari Oba, Wakao Nakagami, Matsuyoshi Maeda, Kenji Kobayashi
    Abstract:

    STUDY DESIGN A case report of monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the thoracic spine with symptoms of chest and back pain. OBJECTIVE To treat this lesion with surgery. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the thoracic spine is rarely seen. Few reports of this disorder appear in the literature. This is the fifth case of monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the thoracic spine presented to date. METHODS The patient was a 48-year-old woman with monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia involving the thoracic spine of the 10th vertebral body and the 10th left rib. Surgical removal of the tumor was carried out. The defect was packed with hydroxyapatite graft material. Arthrodesis or internal fixation was not made. RESULTS The diagnosis of Fibrous Dysplasia was made histologically. No obvious recurrence of the lesion has been seen for 3 years. CONCLUSION Surgical removal of the tumor and transplantation of hydroxyapatite was effective treatment for the reported patient.

  • Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the thoracic spine.
    Spine, 1994
    Co-Authors: Mark N. Nabarro, Peter E. Giblin
    Abstract:

    Fibrous Dysplasia involving the thoracic spine is very rare. This patient had monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia involving the vertebral body, posterior elements, and right seventh rib with focal neurologic signs. The radiographic and bone scan findings are shown. The patient was treated successfully with tumor resection and arthrodesis using combined anterior and posterior approaches. Although Fibrous Dysplasia is classified as a benign process, clear margins of resection are required to prevent recurrence.

  • sarcomatous degeneration in Fibrous Dysplasia of the rib cage
    The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2013
    Co-Authors: Carolin Van Rossem, Patrick Pauwels, Johan Somville, Michael Camerlinck, Peter Bogaerts, Paul Van Schil
    Abstract:

    Malignant degeneration in Fibrous Dysplasia is a rare occurrence. Most cases are reported in polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia with predisposition of the femur, tibia, maxilla, and mandible. The most commonly observed malignant tumors are osteosarcoma, fibrosarcoma, and chondrosarcoma. We describe a case of a low-grade osteosarcoma occurring in polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia of the rib cage in a 50-year-old man.
