Abstract

Cortical desmoid is an uncommon benign bony lesion that can typically be diagnosed through conventional radiographic methods. However, here we present an atypical case of a 14-year-old male who presented with a history of trauma, and the initial X-ray showed a right femur suspicious bony lesion. Still, the subsequent use of CT and MRI confirmed the diagnosis of cortical desmoid, so conservative management and follow-up imaging was recommended. This case highlights the importance of proper identification of this entity can prevent unnecessary biopsy and surgical intervention.

一名 14 岁男性患者皮质蝶窦的放射学表现：病例报告

皮质类蝶形骨瘤是一种不常见的良性骨病变，通常可通过传统的放射学方法确诊。然而，这里我们要介绍的是一个非典型病例，患者是一名 14 岁的男性，有外伤史，最初的 X 光片显示为右股骨可疑骨质病变。但随后使用 CT 和 MRI 确诊为皮质类脂膜炎，因此建议采取保守治疗和后续影像学检查。本病例强调了正确识别这一实体的重要性，可避免不必要的活检和手术干预。
