title: [Left distal femoral diaphysis-metaphyseal injury in a 13-year-old patient].
abstract: This paper aims to present the usefulness of the different diagnosis imaging methods (anatomical and functional) in the characterization of bone injury. Any data, however insignificant, is justified and should be specified. In this case, the discrepancy between the vascular and pool phases in the bone scintigraphy with 99mTc-MDP reveals revealed a lesion with an intense reaction secondary to the "foreign body effect", which is not necessarily malignant.
