TitleChondromyxoid fibroma
DescriptionMale age 11 years. This boy complained of pain at the tumour site for six weeks. The lesion was curetted and packed with bone chips with eventual healing. Histology established the diagnosis. The x-ray shows a cortical defect in the lower tibial metaphysis with a clearly defined margin. Biopsy would be necessary to differentiate this from a non-ossifying fibroma.
