Abstract
Benign bone tumors consist of a wide variety of different neoplasms. These tumors have different incidence, clinical presentation and vary greatly in aggressiveness that’s why they require various methods of therapeutic options.
The presentation with a benign bone tumor is usually precipitated by the discovery of a bone lesion as an incidental finding on a radiograph taken after an injury or because of the onset of signs or symptoms, such as pain, a palpable mass, or a pathologic fracture. There is no single characteristic presentation for all benign bone tumors, but there may be a highly characteristic presentation for a given type of tumor, usually a specific constellation of signs, symptoms, and radiographic findings.
The management of benign bony defects has been the subject of much debate between Orthopaedic surgeons in recent years. There has been an increasing trend towards the intraoperative filling of these lesions, and this is especially so when dealing with defects in weight-bearing areas. Large bone cavities have been reinforced with autologous bone grafts, allografts, bone cement, and bone substitutes(6).
Benign bone tumors are predominantly a disease of the younger population. In general, pain and swelling are the most common presentation while limbing is the most common presentation in benign bone tumors present in the lower limb.
Benign bone tumors are mostly primary in origin. The most common locations are the femur and tibia, mostly presented in the
metaphysis.
