Abstract: Abstract: The incidence of non-ossifying fibroma is very low, and it occurs mostly in the metaphysis of the long bone distance from the epiphyseal plate of 3-4 cm, especially in tibia, femur and fibula. However, it is rarely reported in the patella at home and abroad. This article analyzed the examination and operation of a case of patellar non-ossifying fibroma, and reviewed the manifestations, pathological features and prognosis.

Key words: fibroma, patella, non-ossifying fibroma
