Management of Hemophilic Pseudotumor by Limited Surgery: A Case Report
Keywords:
Hemophilic pseudotumor, Limited surgeryAbstract
A case of infected hemophilic pseudotumor of the femur occurring in an 18-year-old man following an attempted biopsy of the tumor mass was successfully treated by limited exploration and removal of the infected tumor and bone instead of amputation of the limb. The wound later healed with regression of the tumor. No recurrence of the tumor has been observed for two and a half years.
