Abstract

Osteoblastoma is rare, benign, bone-forming tumor that often occur in the spine. There are few reports of osteoblastomas resulting in pathologic fractures involving long bones. Authos report a unique case of a pathologic fracture due to an osteoblastoma of the humerus shaft. The tumor was treated successfully by curettage, intramedullary nailing and bone allograft.

골모세포종은 뼈를 생성하는 드문 양성 종양으로 척추에 주로 발생하지만 장골에서 병적 골절을 발생시키는 골모세포종에 대한 보고는 거의 없다. 저자들은 상완골 간부에 골모세포종으로 인한 병적 골절에 대하여 종양은 소파술을 시행하였고 병적 골절에 대해서는 골수강내 금속정을 이용한 고정술을 시행하여 안정적인 골유합을 얻을 수 있었다. 저자들은 이처럼 보기 드문 상완골 간부애 골모세포종으로 인한 병적 골절을 진단하고 치료하는 경험을 하였기에 이에 관한 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
