Abstract
This case series highlights the use of the Ganz approach and surgical dislocation for excision of fibrous dysplasia of the femoral neck, pigmented villonodular synovitis and synovial chrondromatosis of the hip, which has never been described for use with all three tumours together. These are rare benign tumours, which were found incidentally and required excision.
We demonstrate that it is possible to obtain excellent exposure of the femoral neck, head and acetabulum allowing easy inspection, exploration and debridement of these three tumours of the hip.
