Autogenous bone marrow graft to non-ossifying fibroma with a pathologic fracture.
Non-ossifying fibroma with a pathological fracture of the radius in a 10-year-old girl was successfully treated by curettage and autogenous bone marrow graft. The lesion was completely replaced by normal bone at 1 year after the operation. Autogenous bone-marrow graft was considered to be a useful method for the treatment of non-ossifying fibroma with minimal morbidity of the graft-harvesting site.
