Osteofibrous dysplasia (ossifying fibroma) of the tibia and fibula and adamantinoma. A case report. 1984

A Alguacil-Garcia, and A Alonso, and N M Pettigrew

A case showing clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features of osteofibrous dysplasia of the tibia and fibula (ossifying fibroma of the long bones) associated with scattered epithelioid islands typical of adamantinoma is reported. The previously suggested relationship between adamantinoma and osteofibrous dysplasia is substantiated by this case.
