METHODS: We present a 52-year-old patient diagnosed with a BFH in the thoracic spine treated with total en bloc spondylectomy. A review of the published literature was also conducted.
RESULTS: Non-ossifying fibroma (NOF) and BFH are named as one tumor called NOF/BFH. A total of 20 spinal BFHs have been previously reported, mainly involving the posterior elements. We present a BFH with total vertebral involvement. Curettage and excision are the main treatment options with limited recurrence.
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first total vertebral BFH up to now. Spinal BFH occupies rather low aggressiveness. With rather limited recurrence and malignant degeneration, surgical interventions seem enough for its management.
方法:我们介绍了一名52岁诊断为胸椎BFH的患者,该患者接受了全脊椎整块切除术。还对已发表的文献进行了综述。
结果:非骨化性纤维瘤(NOF)和BFH被称为一种称为NOF/BFH的肿瘤。以前总共报道了20例脊髓BFHs,主要涉及后路元素。我们提出了一个完全受累于椎骨的BFH。刮治和切除是复发有限的主要治疗选择。
结论:这是迄今为止第一个完整的椎体BFH。脊髓BFH占据相当低的侵袭性。复发和恶性变性相当有限,手术干预似乎足以应对其管理。
