Excerpt

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign developmental disorder in which normal bone is replaced by connective tissue and woven bone [1]. In the head and neck region it may cause bone dysplasia, obstruction of sinuses and the skull foramina, as well as bony instability resulting in neural lesions, meningitis and malignant transformation. It is the most common genesis of bone dysplasia in childhood and young patients [2]. There are three subtypes: the monostotic form (70%), affecting a single bone, the polyostotic form (25%), also known as Jaffé-Lichtenstein syndrome, affecting multiple bones and if the polyostotic form is combined with dermal hyperpigmentation and endocrine dysfunction it is classified as the rare McCune-Albright syndrome [1]. …
