【 摘 要 】

Desmoplastic fibroma is an extremely rare primary bone tumor that can mimic the presentation of other bone lesions. We describe the case of a middle-aged male with a mass on the left distal femur initially diagnosed as fibrous dysplasia that underwent a wide margin excision followed by a distal femoral replacement to restore anatomy and functionality. Histologic examination of the complete surgical specimen was consistent with a desmoplastic fibroma. This case is the first report of a successful application of endoprosthetic reconstruction after desmoplastic fibroma resection.
