2025年1月10日 · Non-ossifying fibromas are benign spindle cell tumors of bone containing osteoclast-like giant cells 1-3. They are biologically active and can grow initially become more polycyclic and regress after puberty filling up gradually with bone from the diaphyseal side 3.

2024年9月26日 · Neck of femur (NOF) fractures, or femoral neck fractures, are common injuries sustained by older patients who are more likely to have both unsteadiness of gait and reduced bone mineral density, predisposing to fracture. Elderly osteoporotic women are at greatest risk.

These injuries may be correctly termed fractures of the 'neck of femur' (NOF). The Garden classification system is a traditional means of assessing severity of neck of femur fractures. The system broadly corresponds with prognosis - the more displaced, the more likely the blood supply to the femoral head is compromised.

3 天之前 · Non-Ossifying Fibromas are benign fibrogenic lesions that result from dysfunctional ossification that are most commonly found in the metaphysis of long bones. Patients typically present between the ages of 5 and 15 with an asymptomatic …

2022年2月21日 · fracture NOF is a common ED presentation and timely recognition, analgesia, referral, ward admission for previon of decubitis ulcers, and care of comorbidities are required to ensure early surgery (preferably within 36 hours) which is required if one wishes to avoid increased risk of morbidity or mortality.

Nonossifying fibromas (NOFs) are the most common benign (not cancerous) bone tumor in children. It is estimated that 30 to 40% of people under the age of 20 have an NOF, although few will have any symptoms. NOFs are often discovered by chance when a patient requires X-rays for another reason, such as a knee injury. These tumors:

Non-ossifying fibromas (NOFs) are common lesions most frequently found in the growing bones of children and adolescents. Although NOFs are benign, their presence as incidental findings often triggers further investigation as they are sometimes mistaken for more sinister bone lesions such as aneurysmal bone cysts.

Plain radiograph s (sensitivity 93-98%) is the first-line investigation for suspected Neck of Femur (NOF) fractures. Serious complications (for example avascular necrosis and non-union) are very common without surgical intervention.

2021年9月10日 · Interruption of Shenton’s line may suggest a neck of femur (NOF) fracture in adults or DDH in children. It is important to note that loss of contour of Shenton’s line does not always mean there is an underlying fracture (and so an intact Shenton’s line does not always rule out a NOF fracture), and thus should be used with caution when ...

2024年12月4日 · Non-ossifying fibroma (NOF) is a benign bone lesion, most common in children and young adults. These lesions are eccentric, radiolucent, and ovoid with scalloped margins and a sclerotic border. Typically asymptomatic, they are incidentally discovered on imaging.
