Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a developmental pathology of the bones in which normal bone is replaced by fibrous tissue and immature bone. It can affect single bone (monostotic) or multiple bones (polyostotic), sporadically or in association with McCune-Albright syndrome, Jaffe-Lichtenstein syndrome, or Mazabraud syndrome. When multiple bones in the craniofacial region are affected, the term "craniofacial FD" is used.

Fibrous dysplasia (FD), a benign fibro-osseous bone tumor commonly involving the craniofacial region, presents a wide spectrum of radiographic patterns. When FD lesions are suspected, various imaging modalities and histopathologic analyses may be required to reach a firm diagnosis. Here, the authors report the case of a 10-year-old male patient presenting with polyostotic type of FD with follow-up data for the next 9 years.

Lesions denominated fibro-osseous lesions of the jaw constitute a diversified group of disorders, in which the normal bone architecture is replaced by fibroblasts, collagen fibers and immature bone. At present, the World Health Organization recognizes four variants of these lesions, namely: bone-cement dysplasia, fibrous dysplasia, ossifying fibroma and Familial gigantiform cementoma. Fibrous dysplasia may present in the monostotic form, affecting one single bone or an isolated craniofacial region; and in the Polyostotic form, involving two or more bones of the skeleton, and eventual association with syndromic conditions.

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous disease of the bone, which is most commonly associated with congenital mutations in cAMP regulating protein Gsα coded by gene. Often it is seen involving the craniofacial skeleton and can range from an asymptomatic monostotic form to polyostotic variant involving almost all the bones of the skull, thereby leading to functional and esthetic problems. This requires a continuous monitoring of the involved region throughout the life of the patient, even after the surgical interventions.

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibro-osseous lesion that typically behaves as a painless, slowly expanding tumor. On rare occasion, FD will undergo malignant transformation. When sarcomatous change occurs, osteosarcoma is the typical variant, followed by chondrosarcoma and fibrosarcoma.
