Abstract

I have experienced two cases of non-ossifying fibroma in the metaphysis of the proximal tibia and metaphysis of the distal femur. Roentgenologic studies showed loculated cyst-like bony defect and they were treated with complete curettage. The historical studies revealed them to typical non-ossifying fibroma, and the patients have been showing good conditions po-stoperatively.
