title: Monostotic fibrous dysplasia in the hand. A case report.
abstract: We present in this paper a new case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia in the hand. The reason for this communication is the rarity of this osseous dystrophy in the hand as well as its radiologic features as a malignant osseous tumor, being a lytic lesion with incomplete periostic reaction.
