Abstract
The patient reported here was a 14-year-old female who had numerous surgical treatments for the lesions in her left tibia. Initial diagnosis at the age of 21/2 years was fibrous dysplasia. However, histological findings of curetted materials from the lesions were compatible with Ossifying fibroma which Kempson described in 1961.
It was our impression that aggressive surcal inrervention should be deferred until bone growth approaches to maturity.
