==Overview==
==Overview==
Non ossifying fibromas are present in about 30 % of children. The [[incidence]] of Non ossifying fibroma is approximately 1000-2000 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. The age distribution of Non ossifying fibroma is between 5-15 years. Men are more commonly affected than women, with a 1.9:1 ratio. In 1929, Phemister first described the term non ossifying fibroma. The exact [[pathogenesis]] of non ossifying fibroma is not fully understood. Non ossifying fibroma (NOF) typically occur in the [[metaphysis]] of the [[long bones]]. The [[bones]] often involved are [[femur]], [[tibia]], and [[fibula]]. The majority of patients with non ossifying fibroma are [[asymptomatic]]. Some patients with non ossifying fibroma have a complaints of [[Pain|pain,]] [[swelling]] and [[pathological]] [[fracture]]. [[X-ray]] is the [[diagnostic]] study of choice for the [[diagnosis]] of non ossifying fibroma demonstrating soap bubble like [[Lytic|lytic lesion]]. Observation is the mainstay of treatment for non ossifying fibroma. [[Surgery]] in form of [[curettage]] and [[bone grafting]] is reserved for cases with high risk of [[pathological]] [[Bone fracture|fracture]].


*Non ossifying fibroma is a benign fibroblastic mass. It typically arises in the metaphyses of long bones, particularly the distal femur and tibia. It is common, possibly affecting more than 40% of boys and 30% of girls.It is thought to originate at the insertion site of a ligament or tendon and it has been suggested that it may reflect a previous traction injury. Lesions are usually asymptomatic, although they are occasionally associated with pathological fractures.
==Historical Perspective==
*In 1929, Phemister first described the term non ossifying fibroma.<ref>{{Cite journal| author = [[H. L. Jaffe]] & [[L. Lichtenstein]]| title = Non-osteogenic fibroma of bone| journal = [[The American journal of pathology]]| volume = 18| issue = 2| pages = 205–221| year = 1942| month = March| pmid = 19970624}}</ref><ref>{{cite book | last = Peabody | first = Terrance | title = Orthopaedic oncology : primary and metastatic tumors of the skeletal system | publisher = Springer | location = Cham | year = 2014 | isbn = 9783319073224 }}</ref>
*In 1941, Sontag and Pyle reported a [[Radiological|radiologic]] description of non ossifying fibroma.
*In 1942, Jaffe and Lichtenstein described [[clinical findings]], [[anatomic]] aspects and the [[Natural history of disease|natural history]].
 
==Classification==
Non ossifying fibroma can be classified based on [[imaging]] findings.
 
===Enneking (MSTS) Staging System===

*High signal on T2 can be seen with an associated [[stress fracture]].


* Eccentric lucent lesion with thinned cortex, which may have a multilocular appearance and often a sclerotic margin.
===Other Imaging Findings===
* The lesions spontaneously regress with time and radiographs will show increasing marginal sclerosis followed by progressive ossification of the lesion extending from its diaphyseal aspect.
* The appearance on plain films is characteristic and no further imaging is indicated.

Overview

Non ossifying fibromas are present in about 30 % of children. The incidence of Non ossifying fibroma is approximately 1000-2000 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. The age distribution of Non ossifying fibroma is between 5-15 years. Men are more commonly affected than women, with a 1.9:1 ratio. In 1929, Phemister first described the term non ossifying fibroma. The exact pathogenesis of non ossifying fibroma is not fully understood. Non ossifying fibroma (NOF) typically occur in the metaphysis of the long bones. The bones often involved are femur, tibia, and fibula. The majority of patients with non ossifying fibroma are asymptomatic. Some patients with non ossifying fibroma have a complaints of pain, swelling and pathological fracture. X-ray is the diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of non ossifying fibroma demonstrating soap bubble like lytic lesion. Observation is the mainstay of treatment for non ossifying fibroma. Surgery in form of curettage and bone grafting is reserved for cases with high risk of pathological fracture.

Historical Perspective

Classification

Non ossifying fibroma can be classified based on imaging findings.

Enneking (MSTS) Staging System

Stages Description
1 Latent: Well demarcated borders
2 Active: Indistinct borders
3 Aggressive: Indistinct borders

Pathophysiology

Causes

  • There are no established causes for non ossifying fibroma.[8]

Differentiating Non Ossifying Fibroma from Other Diseases

Non ossifying fibroma must be differentiated from following bone disorders:

Disease Bubbly lytic lesion on x-ray Lakes of Blood on histology Diagnosis Treatment is curretage and bone grafting
Non ossifying fibroma + - Radiology and biopsy -
Unicameral bone cyst + - Radiology and biopsy -
Aneurysmal bone cyst + + Radiology and biopsy +
Giant cell tumor - - Radiology and Biopsy +
Chondroblastoma - - Biopsy +
Chondromyxoid Fibroma - - Radiology and biopsy +
Osteoblastoma - - Radiology and biopsy +
Telangiectatic osteosarcoma - + Radiology and biopsy -

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • The incidence of Non ossifying fibroma is approximately 1000 - 2000 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[9]
  • Adolescents and children are most affected by non ossifying fibroma.
  • Non ossifying fibromas are present in about 30 % of children.[10]
  • The age distribution of Non ossifying fibroma is between 5-15 years.
  • Men are more commonly affected than women, with a 1.9:1 ratio.[11]
  • There is no racial predilection to non ossifying fibroma.

Risk Factors

  • There are no established risk factors for non ossifying fibroma.

Screening

  • There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for non ossifying fibroma.

Indications

  • First line of treatment
  • Most lesions resolve spontaneously and progressively re-ossify as child enters 2nd and 3rd decade of life

Technique

  • Radiographs at 6, 12months, then annually until reossified
