Author(s): Dr. Mayur Rai and Dr. Shetty Suraj Ravindra

Abstract: The non-ossifying fibroma (NOF) is a benign, non-neoplastic lesion most commonly seen in the metaphyses of the long bones in children. While rare, the NOF has been reported in the radius as well. Radiographically, it is well delineated multi or uniloculated lesions with sclerotic margins. It is commonly found in children and adolescents and is the most common fibrous bony lesion. Therefore, it is important to recognize the clinical and radiographic characteristics of this benign lesion.
