Intraosseous lipomas are rare benign bone tumors. This benign neoplasm has been reported to occur in the calcaneus as well as the proximal femur. In the past, the relative absence of symptoms and radiographic similarity to a bone cyst has accounted for underdiagnosis of intraosseous lipoma. The case presented in this article was diagnosed with the help of computerized tomography and histopathologic analysis, after which the patient was treated by means of curettage and packing with calcium phosphate bone graft substitute. The purpose of this article is to increase awareness among clinicians of the existence of this unusual lesion.
骨内脂肪瘤是罕见的良性骨肿瘤。据报道,这种良性肿瘤可发生于跟骨以及股骨近端。过去,由于症状相对不明显以及在影像学上与骨囊肿相似,导致骨内脂肪瘤的诊断不足。本文所呈现的病例借助计算机断层扫描和组织病理学分析得以确诊,之后患者接受了刮除术并用磷酸钙骨移植替代物填充的治疗。本文的目的是提高临床医生对这种罕见病变存在的认识。
