RESUMEN
A displasia fibrosa da mandíbula é uma patologia óssea benigna que representa cerca de 2% de todos os tumores ósseos. Relatamos o caso de uma paciente de 11 anos de idade, com queixa de dor em região mandibular esquerda há 1 semana, com história de abaulamento da mesma região há 3 meses. Após realização de exames de imagem, foi diagnosticado displasia fibrosa da mandíbula. O objetivo deste relato é revisar as principais características clínicas, radiológicas e possíveis tratamentos para o caso, dando a devida importância para o seguimento ambulatorial pós-tratamento
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign bone disease which represents about 2% of all bone tumors. Here we report the case of an 11-year-old who complained of pain at the left mandible area for a week, with history of arching in this area for 3 months. Imaging examinations led to the diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia of the mandible. The aim of this work is to review the main clinical and radiological characteristics and possible treatments for the case, giving due importance to ambulatory follow-up care

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous disease that affects one or more bones. Although its etiology has been defined, the mechanism of spontaneous resolution is still unclear. There is strong evidence indicating the occurrence of stabilization when bone maturation is completed. Deformities that lead to esthetic and functional disorders are observed in almost all cases. Plastic surgery is often recommended when the maxilla and mandible are involved. In the case of mild deformities, careful follow-up during skeletal growth is recommended. We describe here the 23-year follow-up of a patient with monostotic fibrous dysplasia whose disease had stabilized by 13 years of follow-up.
