Abstract:
The unusual case of fibrous dysplasia located in the distal phalanx of the hallux is presented with a review of literature. Fibrous dysplasia is a benign disorder that can affect one or many bones in any particular case. The bone involvement is characterized by the presence of fibro-osseous tissue within the interior of the affected bone. Pathologic, clinical, and radiographic findings will be discussed.
