M Halawa et al. J Bone Joint Surg Br. 1984 Nov.

Abstract

Malignant transformation of fibrous dysplasia to chondrosarcoma is rare. We report a case in which malignancy developed in an area of fibrous dysplasia in the ilium. We believe this to be the second reported case at this site. Treatment was by excision of the hemipelvis including the ala of the sacrum. A review of the literature is presented.
