OSTEOLYTIC TUMOUR OF PROXIMAL RADIUS A DIAGNOSTIC DILEMMA

MAHESH KULKARNI

Abstract


Abstract : Benign hemangiomas are uncommon tumours constituting less than 1percent of all the bone tumours. They involve frequently vertebral bodies and skull, which usually asymptomatic. Involvement of tubular long bones is rare but when they involve, they will be symptomatic and occur in metadiaphyseal region. Only few case reports are available for the Involvement of juxtraarticular epiphysial region. We are presenting a case report of cavernous hemangioma of proximal radius involving radial head with pathological               fracure.
