Shepherd Crook Deformity with Left Femur Shaft Fracture in Fibrous Dysplasia Treated with Locking Compression Plate - A Case Report

Dr. Gils Thampi, Dr. Nagakumar Js, Dr. Arun Heddur Shanthappa

Abstract: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare benign bone disorder characterized by abnormal fibrous tissue replacing normal bone, often leading to deformities and fractures. We present a case of a 40 - year - old female with a mid - shaft femur fracture and proximal femoral shepherd's crook deformity following a fall. Diagnosis was confirmed through imaging and histopathology. The patient underwent open reduction and internal fixation with a locking compression plate, followed by early mobilization and physiotherapy. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and regular follow - up showed significant improvement. This case underscores the importance of timely surgical management and rehabilitation in complex Fibrous Dysplasia associated fractures.
