Aloarthroplasty of the Hip After Pathological Fracture of the Right Femoral Neck and Right Femoral Dyaphysis and Osteosynthesis after Fracture of the Left Femoral Dyaphysis in 41-Year-Old Female Patient with Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia? Case Report

Abstract

A 41-year- old female patient with pathological basicervical right femoral neck fracture and fractures of both femoral bones 15-20 cm distally from the small trochanter is presented. Skeletal scintigraphy was performed and multiple pathological accumulations of radioactive substances were found in almost the entire locomotor system. First, we implanted a partial biarticular hip prosthesis with long stem in right femur, and one year later osteosynthesis of the left femoral diaphysis was done. Pathohistological examination did not find tumor cells and polyostotic fibrous dysplasia also was not clear. Our patient had not problems with bones earlier and she was never treated for this disease, except surgery of femoral fractures. Today, 11 years later the patient is in good general state, she has no pain in her legs and fractures of femur bones healed completely. We did not find a case in literature that a two fractures of proximal right femur bone (femoral neck and proximal diaphysis) and fracture of the left femoral diaphysis were solved with long stem prosthesis, and osteosynthesis of another femoral bone in patient who, we believe, has fibrous dysplasia and was never treated for this disease.
