Chondromyxoid fibroma of the foot

Abstract: Chondromyxoid fibroma is a rare benign cartilaginous tumour seen most frequently around the knee in children and young adults. Up to 17% occur in the foot, where more aggressive appearances have been reported. Four cases of chondromyxoid fibroma in the forefoot are presented, demonstrating the wide range of radiological appearances of this primary tumour. Three of the four tumours recurred, one at 19 years after the surgery. These cases illustrate the need for thorough preoperative assessment to ensure complet… Show more

“…Large or recurrent lesions may be locally aggressive. O'Connor et al described four cases of CMF in the forefoot and reported that three of the four recurred, one at 19 years after surgery [17]. Malignant potential has been documented in the literature [2,8], although we came across no case with malignant transformation.…”

“…Although foot and ankle involvement is reported to vary from 10% to 31% [19,20,23,25], most available evidence is in the form of isolated case reports or small case series [3,5,7,9,12,14,17,18,21,22,24]. Ten cases of histologically proven CMF of the foot and ankle with a mean follow-up of 6.1 years were retrospectively reviewed using Scottish Bone Tumour Registry database in order to ascertain the behavior of CMF in the foot and ankle area with regard to diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.…”

“…The longest interval before recurrence was 18 years in second recurrence of metatarsal CMF [41]. Zillmer and Dorfman [3] mentioned that the overall time to recurrence was less than 2 years, and Wu et al [4] reported that it was between S months and 10 years (average age, 3.2 years), and the first recurrence was usually noted within 1 year.…”
