Core Tip
Core tip: Osteofibrous dysplasia is a developmental skeletal disorder, and cases involving the pelvis with a large affected area are rare. This report is the first case, to our knowledge, of a 48-year-old man with a huge tumor in the right iliac that turned out to be osteofibrous dysplasia. With the assistance of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, the tumor was completely removed, and the left empty cavity was reasonably filled by pulling and suturing nearby muscles and using some artificial bone.
