RESUMO
Fibrous dysplasia is a non-neoplastic, sporadic, slowly progressing disease of the bone in which normal bone is replaced by abnormally overgrowing lesions. There are three different types of fibrous dysplasia: monostotic (affecting a single bone), poliostotic (affecting multiple bones) and syndromic, when it is associated with other diseases (such as McCune Albright syndrome). Fibrous dysplasia affects cranio-facial bones in 10% of the cases. However, its occurrence in the inferior turbinate is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, only four cases of monostotic form have been reported so far. Hereafter we describe a case of monostotic FD of the inferior turbinate surgically treated with a trans-nasal endoscopic partial maxillectomy type II.

Fibrous dysplasia is a slowly progressive benign fibro-osseous disease, rarely occurring in temporal bones. In these cases, most bony lesions developed from the bony part of the external auditory canals, causing otalgia, hearing impairment, otorrhea, and ear hygiene blockade and probably leading to secondary cholesteatoma. We presented the medical history of a 24-year-old woman with temporal monostotic fibrous dysplasia with secondary cholesteatoma. The initial presentation was unilateral conductive hearing loss. A hard external canal tumor contributing to canal stenosis and a near-absent tympanic membrane were found. Canaloplasty and type I tympanoplasty were performed, but the symptoms recurred after 5 years. She received canal wall down tympanomastoidectomy with ossciculoplasty at the second time, and secondary cholesteatoma in the middle ear was diagnosed. Fifteen years later, left otorrhea recurred again and transcanal endoscopic surgery was performed for middle ear clearance. Currently, revision surgeries provide a stable auditory condition, but her monostotic temporal fibrous dysplasia is still in place.

We report on a child with Duchenne muscular dystrophy on prolonged corticosteroid treatment who presented with back pain and was subsequently found to have a monostotic fibrous dysplasia lesion of the spine. It is the intent of this case report to emphasize the need to maintain a high index of suspicion for other potential causes of back pain in Duchenne muscular dystrophy besides vertebral compression fractures.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign bone lesion manifested by local pain, swelling and deformity change. We report a case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the first thoracic vertebrae that treated by radical removal and reconstruction. CASE REPORT: A 29-year-old man with monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the first thoracic vertebrae was admitted to our department because of persistent, dull back pain for 3 months. Radical removal of the first thoracic vertebrae and reconstruction were performed in a combined posterior-anterior approach. This patient experienced complete pain relief without any complication. CONCLUSION: This report presents a rare case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the first thoracic vertebrae, with symptoms of chronic back pain that was successfully treated with radical excision and reconstruction, providing a good option to the patient.

INTRODUCTION: Fibrous dysplasia is a bone disorder of unknown origin in which normal bone is replaced with fibrotic tissue and disorganised bone trabeculae. The temporal bone is rarely affected. Because of the slowly progressive course of the disease, many mild cases may never be recognised and are found incidentally. We present a patient with fibrous dysplasia of the right temporal bone, who had few complaints. OBJECTIVE: A 62-year-old man was incidentally found to have fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone on routine computed tomography scan. METHOD: One case report. RESULTS: Computed tomography showed a thickening of the right temporal bone with a ground-glass appearance. The 62-year-old man opted for watchful waiting. CONCLUSION: We have presented an asymptomatic fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone. Mild cases may never be recognised and are found incidentally because of their slow progression.

Malignant transformation in fibrous dysplasia (FD) is uncommon. The purpose of this study was to investigate clinical and imaging features, and outcomes of malignant transformation in monostotic FD.Data for 10 pathologically confirmed malignant transformations in monostotic FD from January 2005 to December 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. Patient data were recorded, and radiographs (nâ=â10), computed tomography (CT) (nâ=â5), magnetic resonance (MR) (nâ=â4), and bone scintigrams (nâ=â10) were evaluated for lesion location, margin, cortical destruction, marrow involvement, periosteal reaction, and soft tissue mass by 2 musculoskeletal radiologists with agreement by consensus. Clinical features, management, and prognosis were also analyzed for each of the 10 cases.There were 8 male and 2 female patients (mean age 46.5â±â15.9 years). The affected sites were the femur (nâ=â4), humerus (nâ=â2), tibia (nâ=â3), and ilium (nâ=â1). Five cases had received previous surgery and 5 cases had no history of surgery. No patients had been given prior irradiation treatment. For the 5 cases with surgery, radiographs and CT showed purely osteolytic lesions with poor margination in the curettage area (nâ=â5), cortical destruction (nâ=â5), obvious soft tissue mass (nâ=â1), and mineralization (nâ=â2). For the 5 cases without surgery, radiographs and CT identified poorly marginated, osteolytic lesions within or near the area with "ground-glass" opacity (nâ=â4), cortical erosion (nâ=â4), and mineralization (nâ=â2). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) also identified lesions with heterogeneous signal intensity and pronounced enhancement. Bone scintigraphy revealed eccentric increased uptake of radionuclide in monostotic lesion (nâ=â10). Pathology reports revealed osteosarcoma (nâ=â7), fibrosarcoma (nâ=â2), and malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) (nâ=â1). At the end of the study, 1 patient died from tumors, 1 patient was alive with lung metastasis, 1 patient experienced recurrence, and 7 patients were alive without recurrence.Patients with FD and a history of surgery should be followed up, for the osteolytic lesions in the operative areas strongly indicate the malignant transformation. The radiographic feature of FD-related malignancies is poorly marginated, mineralized, and osteolytic lesions with cortical destruction. Further investigations are needed to explore the pathogenesis of malignancies in FD and to establish optimal therapeutic strategies.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Fibrous dysplasia is a condition of nonmalignant osseous change and may occur in a monostotic or polyostotic pattern, the latter potentially being associated with McCune-Albright syndrome. Symptoms are highly variable and dependent upon lesion location and size. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective review. METHODS: Consecutive subjects with fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone were evaluated between 2000 and 2013 at two tertiary academic referral centers. Main outcome measures included disease presentation, diagnostic evaluation, management strategy, and outcome. RESULTS: Sixty-six patients with fibrous dysplasia of the skull were found to have involvement of the temporal bone. The mean age at diagnosis was 25 years, 39 (59%) were female, and the mean duration of follow-up was 48 months. Six (11%) patients had monostotic disease, with the remaining 60 (89%) patients having the polyostotic form; 16 (24%) patients had McCune-Albright syndrome. The most common presenting complaint was headache (59%), followed by hearing loss (29%). The most common exam finding was cosmetic deformity (50%). Cholesteatoma (3%) and spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid fistula (1.5%) were found in a small percentage. No patients had evidence of motor cranial neuropathy by history or physical examination. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical presentation of fibrous dysplasia involving the temporal bone is variable. A growing number of patients are diagnosed incidentally through imaging, and since most patients experience a benign course, the majority can be followed clinically without need for intervention. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

INTRODUCTION: Fibrous dysplasia is one of many well-known disorders in which there is a defect in the remodeling process of immature bone to mature into lamellar bone, and it often exists in metaphyseal and diaphyseal parts of the long bone. In this report, we describe a rare case where fibrous dysplasia was found only in the proximal part of the epiphysis of the tibia without other bony lesions. CASE PRESENTATION: A 14-year-old Asian girl was referred to our hospital after slipping down with pain on the left knee. A radiograph showed an abnormal finding of a central radiolucent lesion with a marginal sclerotic border near the proximal tibial spine. A magnetic resonance image showed the lesion at low signal intensity on a T1-weighted image and at high signal intensity on a T2-weighted image. The biopsy results led us to conclude that the lesion was a fibrous dysplasia. CONCLUSION: If an abnormal lesion on the epiphysis, especially in long bones, is detected on a radiograph, several differential diagnoses can be made. Although fibrous dysplasia is usually not encountered as an epiphyseal lesion, it is important to incorporate all the clinical, radiographic and pathologic features to diagnose monostotic fibrous dysplasia when the lesion is located at the epiphyseal location.

BACKGROUND: The clinical characteristics of craniomaxillofacial fibrous dysplasia (FD) have not been clearly identified. The objective of this meta-analysis is to assess the predominance of the monostotic form of FD using an evidence-based review. Furthermore, we examined the laterality and sex dominance of FD in patients from international study populations. METHODS: We performed a systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and EBSCO for trials published through August 2013. Data extracted from the literature were analysed with Review manager 5.0.24. RESULTS: The results of this study showed that unilateral FD occurred more frequently than bilateral FD (RR, 12.37; 95% CI, 2.92-61.24; P = 0.008, N = 263 patients). For unilateral FD, there was no significant difference between cases involving the left or right side of the face (RR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.66-1.44; P = 0.91; N = 201 patients). There were no significant sex-dependent differences for monostotic and polyostotic forms of craniomaxillofacial FD. CONCLUSION: There is a significantly higher percentage of the unilateral form than the bilateral form in the craniomaxillofacial FD studies analysed, and an almost equal distribution of left- and right-sided unilateral FD. These proportions were maintained among males and females and there were nearly equal frequencies of monostotic and polyostotic FD.

Monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur has a variable clinical course, despite its reported limited tendency to progress. We investigated the natural history and predisposing factors for progression of dysplasia in a group of 76 patients with a mean follow-up of 8.5 years (2.0 to 15.2). Of these, 31 (41%) presented with an asymptomatic incidental lesion while 45 (59%) presented with pain or a pathological fracture. A group of 23 patients (30%) underwent early operative treatment for pain (19: 25%) or pathological fracture (4: 5%). Of the 53 patients who were initially treated non-operatively, 45 (85%) remained asymptomatic but eight (15%) needed surgery because of pain or fracture. The progression-free survival of the observation group was 81% (sd 6.4%) at five-years follow-up. An initial presentation of pain (p < 0.001), a limp (p < 0.001), radiological evidence of microfracture (p = 0.001) and younger age (< 17 years) (p = 0.016) were significant predisposing factors for disease progression. The risk of experiencing pain or pathological fracture is considerable in monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur. Patients presenting with pain, a limp or radiological evidence of microfracture have a high chance of needing surgical treatment.

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a progressive systemic bone tumour of young and it can be seen on cranial bones. FD is divided into three types according to radiological features. The second most common subtype is polyostotic subtype. With this article, we aimed to review and present clinical features, radiological examination, differential diagnosis and treatment management of a case of solitary monostotic fibrous dysplasia of occipital bone. 15 years old female patient admitted to our hospital for a bump and in the back of his head that she noticed 1 month ago. Her physical and neurological examination was normal. On cranial CT examination we detected a bony defect. Her gadolinium enhanced cranial MRI revealed bony defect along with massive gadolinium enhancement in adjacent tissue. On histopathologic examination; PANCK, CD68, CD1a were found negative and CD45, S-100, Vimentine were found positive. Ki-67 was 4,8%. In conclusion, fibrous dysplasia is a progressive bone disease of the young patients. Despite its resemblance to a benign lesion by not being symptomatic it can progress and cause severe bony defects and skin lesions. Total surgical resection is necessary and sufficient for total treatment.

Fibrous dysplasia is a nonneoplastic, developmental disease of the bone that begins in childhood with obscure etiology. Clinically, it is presented as a continuously growing, painless mass at late childhood. Maxilla and mandible are mostly involved in facial skeleton. Involvement of the zygomatic bone is rare. Fibrous dysplasia of the zygomatic bone may cause orbital dystopia, diplopia, proptosis, loss of visual acuity, swelling, mass formation, or facial asymmetry. We present 1 case of fibrous dysplasia with isolated zygomatic bone involvement.

Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental abnormality of bone that is characterized by a highly disorganized mixture of immature fibrous tissue and fragments of immature trabecular bone. Fibrous dysplasia may arise as a single, discrete (monostotic) lesion or can occur with a more widespread distribution with multiple lesions that affect many bones (oligo- or polyostotic). Fibrous dysplasia is usually an isolated skeletal finding but can sometimes occur as a component of a multisystem developmental disorder known as McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) that is also associated with endocrine hyperfunction (e.g. precocious puberty) and caf au lait cutaneous macules. The identification of activating mutations in GNAS in a subset of human GH-secreting pituitary tumors and autonomously functioning human thyroid tumors provided the initial basis for understanding the molecular pathophysiology of McCune-Albright syndrome and fibrous dysplasia. These observations led to the concept that activating mutations of the GNAS gene convert it into a putative oncogene referred to as gsp (Gsa or Gas). The classic radiographic feature of fibrous dysplasia is a hazy, radiolucent, or ground-glass, pattern resulting from the defective mineralization of immature dysplastic bone; it is usually strikingly different from the radiographic appearance of normal bone, calcified cartilage, or soft tissue. The surgical approach to fibrous dysplasia should in general be conservative. Recent research suggests that the WntlB-catenin pathway may play a role in fibrous dysplasia as patients with activating GNAS mutations specifically showed that Gas mutations activated Wnt/B-catenin signaling. Thus inhibition of 8-catenin signaling or silencing GNAS alleles that encode constitutively active Gsa molecules in fibrous dysplasia and McCune-Albright syndrome offer potential therapeutic promise and deserve further study. In summary fibrous dysplasia is a developmental abnormality of bone with a known molecular etiology; Further knowledge about the molecular pathology of fibrous dysplasia may lead to improved conservative therapies in the near future.

BACKGROUND: Fibrous dysplasia is the most common craniofacial tumor, presenting in both monostotic and polyostotic forms with varying degrees of severity. No consensus exists regarding the surgical management of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia, particularly in the zygomaticomaxillary region. The present study compared long-term outcomes of limited reduction burring versus radical resection of zygomaticomaxillary fibrous dysplasia. METHODS: Patients with craniofacial fibrous dysplasia at the University of California, Los Angeles, Craniofacial Center from 1982 to 2008 were studied based on demographics, treatment, and follow-up data, including examinations, computed tomographic scans, photographs, physician Whitaker scoring, and patient surveys (n=97). Outcomes were compared for zygomaticomaxillary disease treated with radical resection with cranial bone graft reconstruction or limited reduction burring (n=58). RESULTS: Thirty-four percent of patients had monostotic disease, 66 percent had polyostotic disease, 3 percent had McCune-Albright syndrome, and 2.1 percent had malignant degeneration into osteosarcoma. Most patients had surgical treatment (84.5 percent). Of the patients that required optic nerve decompression for vision changes (11.4 percent), most (75 percent) had vision stabilization postoperatively. Differences were recorded in zygomaticomaxillary disease treated with radical resection (63.8 percent) versus reduction burring (36.2 percent) according to age (19.6 versus 14.2 years), complications (13.5 percent versus 4.8 percent), recurrence (66.7 percent versus 24.3 percent), and number of subsequent procedures (2.8 versus 4.0). There were similarities in Whitaker outcome score (1.3±0.3 versus 1.5±0.6) and patient satisfaction (2.7±0.4 versus 2.8±0.3). CONCLUSIONS: Although different approaches have been advocated to treat fibrous dysplasia, the authors' data support a more aggressive management for zygomaticomaxillary disease with radical resection and cranial bone graft reconstruction, especially for more involved disease. CLINICAL QUESTION OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, III.

After a diagnostic study involving computer tomography and bone scintigraphy, a 16-year-old boy appeared to be suffering from the monostotic type of fibrous dysplasia of the maxilla. The diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination ofa biopsy. During a follow-up period of 8 years, no signs of progression were evident. Fibrous dysplasia is a rather poorly understood benign bone disease which may occur anywhere in the skeleton. In general, histopathological confirmation using a bone biopsy is recommended. Fibrous dysplasia can be divided into 3 types: 1. monostotic, 2. polyostotic, and 3. polyostotic with endocrine problems. In the majority of cases, a wait-and-watch strategy is sufficient. Malignant transformation is extremely rare and appears almost exclusively in polyostotic cases.

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a sporadic benign skeletal disorder that can affect one bone (monostotic form) or multiple bones (polyostotic bone). Around 6-20% of monostotic FD occurs in the ribs. The objective of this study was to report our experience in the management of the monostotic FD of the ribs. Between January 2004 and December 2009, seven cases of FD of the rib (six men and one woman, mean age 30.4 years, range 17-40 years) were operated on. The patients were evaluated with plain radiographs and computer tomography (CT). All our patients were symptomatic; two patients presented chest pain and swelling and other patients presented only chest pain. One rib was involved in all our patients (monostotic form): the site was fifth rib (four cases), sixth rib (two cases) or second rib (one case). Radiologically, plain films and CT showed an expansible lesion with a ground-glass centre and thinning of the cortex. Rib resection was performed in all patients; there were no postoperative complications and no recurrence in all cases at mean 43 month follow-up. In symptomatic monostotic FD of ribs, the involved segment of bone may be excised to rule out malignancy and for painful lesions.
