ABSTRACT
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) accompanying osteomyelitis (OM) has been reported to result in recurrent, refractory pain and swelling. Although radical resection of the lesions has been suggested, effective surgical treatment strategies have not yet been established due to the limited number of studies on this pathological condition. In this report, we present the conservative surgical management of FD accompanying OM in two patients who exhibited recurrent signs and symptoms. The present report suggests that OM occurring in patients with FD can be successfully managed with conservative surgical treatment and following removal of the odontogenic origin although bone defect in which inflammatory fibro-osseous lesions is removed through decompression surgery may exhibit regeneration of dysplastic bone. In addition, for the prevention of OM in patients with FD, careful clinical examination and thorough management of dental-related pathologies are necessary with regular follow-up examinations to screen for the possibility of malignant changes.
