“…The overall appearance of this lesion resembles an entity that has been previously reported in the literature as the "fibro-osseous lesion of rib" [23,24], "symmetrical fibro-osseous dysplasia of rib" [19] and '~ focal Erdheim-Chester disease" of rib [8] (see Table 1). …”

A unique lesion discovered in the scapula of a 36-year-old woman is presented. The lesion has microscopic features resembling those of fibrous dysplasia and osteoid osteoma which we believe is identical to an entity previously only documented in the rib (fibro-osseous lesion of rib). We are of the opinion that the lesion probably represents a reactive response to trauma rather than a neoplasm and suggest the name of "fibro-osseous reparative pseudotumor" for this entity.

“…In the other patient, liver and paraspinal lesions were present (27). Several other cases with lytic lesions of the axial skeleton were reported before the introduction of immunohistochemical tests or received no pathologic confirmation (9,23,31,32). Osteolytic lesions of the axial skeleton are more characteristic of Langerhans cell histiocytosis.…”
