Abstract

We presented a case of a desmoplastic fibroma in the hip in a patient aged 24 years. A radiographic study was carried out revealing an extensive osteolytic lesion in right hip. The aim was showing a tumor with little statistical frequency in national and international literature, and exposing the procedure and definitive treatment. The histological study confirmed the presence of abundant collagenic fibers, forming hyaline bands separated by few little fibroblasts, without mitotic activity.   We made the curettage of the lesion with a graft of porous hydroxyapatite HAP-200. The patient had a satisfactory post-surgical evolution with an immediate incorporation to the social environment.
