Introduction:
Bone liposclerosing fibromyxoma (FLO) is a benign fibro-osseous neoplasm that has a predilection for the intertrochanteric region of the femur, imaging tests are essential for its diagnosis.
Clinical case:
45-year-old patient with chronic pain in the right hip, imaging tests show a sclerotic lesion in the right femur, for which surgery was performed and whose pathological result is definitive of FLO.
Conclusion:
Liposclerosing fibroma is a rare benign lesion. It can become malignant in 10-15%. It usually appears in bones such as the femur, with characteristic images on X-rays and MRIs. Treatment is usually conservative.
