The patient had rebound tenderness in his right hip. After radiography examination, magnetic resonance imaging examinations and some physical examination, extensive bone destruction in the right ilium was confirmed. Moreover, changes in bone mi-neral density and peripheral cortical bone sclerosis with surrounding soft tissue swelling were observed. Thus, this patient was considered to have giant monostoticOFD of the ilium. The tumor-related area was removed completely by surgery, and the remaining cavity was filled by artificial bones from the opposite ilium. According to the results of follow-up, the patient had normal fexion and extension activities of the right hip joint, and there was no evidence of recurrence of the tumor.CONCLUSION Suture of iliopsoas and gluteus medius muscle following focus curettage and bone grafting is a promising and effective method to treat giant OFD of the ilium. It is a feasible way to fll a large cavity after removing a lesion like the one is this case.展开更多
