Correction of Fibrous Dysplasia Induced Femoral Deformity with Intramedullary Nail
摘要
The patient is a 13-year-old male with thigh pain due to monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the right femur with pathologic deformity due to microfracture. He underwent intralesional excision of the fibrous dysplasia with synthetic bone grafting along with femoral deformity correction with an intramedullary nail. The bone healed and remodeled into a denser, more supportive bone, which along with the intramedullary nail relieved the patient’s thigh pain and allowed participation in competitive sport.
