Abstract

Osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) is a rare bone tumor affecting young individuals. The differential diagnosis between OFD and adamantinoma may be challenging in some cases on imaging. We present a case of OFD and discuss the key imaging and histological findings. We also discuss the differential diagnosis between OFD and classical adamantinoma on the basis of recent literature.
