Overview

Fibrous dysplasia is a rare non-malignant bone disorder. The bone affected by this disorder is replaced by abnormal fibrous connective tissue. This normal fibrous tissue weakens the bone, making it abnormally fragile and prone to a fracture. Fibrous dysplasia may affect one solitary bone (monoostotic disease) or the disorder can be widespread, affecting multiple bones (polyostotic disease). Fibrous dysplasia is usually diagnosed in children or young adults but mild cases may go undiagnosed until adulthood. The case report describes management and surgical treatment of extensive fibrous dysplasia in a 29-year-old man.

Key words:
fibrous dysplasia – craniofacial – surgical treatment
