Abstract

Osteofibrous dysplasia is a rare entity which occurs in long bones. Tibia is the most common bone to be affected by osteofibrous dysplasia. We report a rare case presentation of osteofibrous dysplasia of clavicle in an 18 year old male student who presented to us with painful swelling over right clavicle region. Radiograph showed expansile lytic lesion in middle third of clavicle with multiple loculations and intervening calcified septae. On excisional biopsy and histopathological examination this lesion found to be osteofibrous dysplasia of clavicle. To the best of our knowledge, it is a first case of osteofibrous dysplasia affecting clavicle to be reported in the literature.
