NON-OSTEOGENIC FIBROMA OF BONE

Roy H. Maudsley 1; and Alfred G. Stansfeld 1

1 Royal Free Hospital

1. Ten cases are recorded of the entity known as non-osteogenic fibroma of bone.

2. We believe the evidence is in favour of the condition's being a localised disturbance of bone growth (metaphysial fibrous defect) rather than a true neoplasm.

3. The disorder usually pursues a symptomless course and in many instances the lesion disappears spontaneously.
