Popis: A 6-day-old boy presented at the Orthopaedic Depar tment of the University of Mfinster in February 1987 with a swelling of the right lower limb (just below the proximal tibial epiphysis). The swelling had existed since birth. Physical examination revealed a swelling and minimal tenderness in the region of the right proximal end of the right tibia. Motion of the right knee was normal. Otherwise, the patient was healthy with no evidence of congenital malformations. The laboratory data were normal. Radiological studies showed a lytic lesion in the left proximal tibial metadiaphysis (Figs. 1, 2) with extension into adjacent soft tissue structures. A biopsy was performed.
