ABSTRACT
Fibrous dysplasia is an unusual pathologic condition caused by abnormal bone metabolism. Temporal bone involvement is often seen, but it is uncommon to find fibrous dysplasia limited to the middle ear, especially originating in and confined to a single ossicle. Here we report a case of osteofibrous dysplasia limited exclusively to an ossicle (malleus) causing gradual conductive hearing loss, which recovered after eventual complete removal of the dysplastic area. The lesion showed firm attachment to adjacent structures and initial removal was not possible. This report provides information to help other otologic surgeons facing similar conditions.
