Summary

The authors summarize the morphological findings on cementoma-like fibromas of long bones registered at the Reference Centre for Bone Tumours in Brno or referred to it. One of the cases registered is described in detail from the submicroscopic point of view. Their experience has shown that cementoma-like fibromas of long bones are genuine bone tumours sui generis, differing to some extent from cementomas of the jaws. The cementicles in such tumours are identical to acellular dental cement and structurally quite different from osteoid.

Zusammenfassung

Die morphologischen Befunde bei cementomartigen Fibromen der langen Röhrenknochen, die im Knochentumorregister von Brünn erfaßt sind, werden zusammenfassend mitgeteilt. Ein eigener Beobachtungsfall wird nach elektronenmikroskopischer Untersuchung im Detail beschrieben. Es handelt sich um eigenständige Tumoren, die sich von denen im Kieferbereich bis zu einem gewissen Grade unterscheiden.
