AbstractOsteofibrous dysplasia Campanacci is a rare tumor-like lesion mostly presented in the meta-epiphyseal region of the tibia. Different options exist about the treatment modalities. The rare case of a 4 1/2-year-old girl suffering from a pathologic fracture of the tibia shaft due to a osteofibrous dysplasia is presented. The fracture was stabilized by intramedullary nailing using elastic titanium rods. During this procedure a biopsy of the lesion confirmed the radiological suspected diagnosis of an osteofibrous dysplasia. The implant was removed after ten months when fracture and lesion were healed. The treatment options and the differential diagnoses are discussed by review of the literature.
