Abstract
Bone tumors containing fibrous tissue and cementum-like spherules are typically found in the maxilla and mandible. However, such lesions are extremely infrequent in the long bones. We report the complete radiologic assessment of a cementoma of the fibula in a 42-year-old man. We also correlate the findings with data provided by histopathologic analysis, and review the English-language literature on tumors of long bones that may contain cementum-like material.
