Title: Desmoplastic fibroma of the first metatarsal. A case report. Author: Beskin JL, Haddad RJ. Journal: Clin Orthop Relat Res; 1985 May; (195):299-303. PubMed ID: 3978964. Abstract: Desmoplastic fibroma is a benign but frequently aggressive tumor of bone. A 27-year-old man was treated for this lesion in the first metatarsal. The lesion recurred, extending into the medial cuneiform necessitating ray resection. The similar clinical and histologic findings of this tumor and other tumors, both benign and malignant, makes familiarity with the character of desmoplastic fibroma essential for proper treatment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
