Abstract


Fibrous cortical defects (FCD) are benign bony lesions, and are a type of fibroxanthoma, histologically identical to the larger               non-ossifying fibroma (NOF). Benign well-circumscribed eccentric solitary lesion in metaphysis of long bone in children. Multiple lesions rare. Lesions seen in children called fibrous cortical defect. Lesions seen in adults traditionally called non-ossifying fibroma
