Today, osteitis fibrosa cystica is seldom present in primary hyperparathyroidism while it is mainly observed in uraemic osteodystrophy. We describe the case of a 54-year-old woman who was found to have huge bone cysts due to osteitis fibrosa cystica in the long bones. A parathyroid adenoma was identified and removed. Coeliac disease and Turner syndrome were diagnosed. Metabolic bone disease due to secondary hyperparathyroidism is common in coeliac disease; however, osteitis fibrosa cystica has not yet been described.

Fibrous dysplasia is a slow-progressing benign condition characterized by abnormal bone formation that leads to some skeletal disorders. Although some of the fibrous dysplasia have unusual clinical and radiographic features that can lead to a challenging diagnosis, most lesions reveal an expansile bone defect due to cortex thinning. This report presented a case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia of a 43-year-old woman with involvement of the right maxillary jaw and sinuses, which indicated unusual histopathological features.

Fibrous dysplasia is a rare genetic syndrome that affects bone tissue. This pathology replaces the mineralized matrix of the bone affected with connective and fibrous tissue. This article describes a mandibular fibrous osseous dysplasia case and its surgical treatment.

A woman in her 50s presented with a 1-year history of left hip pain that increased over the past 2 weeks. The pain began following a low-energy fall. During the 1-year period, she had multiple lesions in the thigh and gluteal region, which were surgically excised.

Beyond enchondromas, the most common bone tumors of the hand, there are numerous less common benign bone tumors and mimickers with which orthopaedic and hand surgeons should be familiar. These include other benign cartilage tumors, cystic lesions, osteogenic tumors, giant cell tumor, and fibrous dysplasia. Particularly unique lesions include bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (Nora lesion), florid reactive periostitis, turret exostosis (acquired osteochondroma), giant cell reparative granuloma (solid aneurysmal bone cyst), and epidermoid cyst.

Background: Fibrous dysplasia (FD), caused by activating mutations of GNAS, is a skeletal disorder with considerable clinicopathological heterogeneity. Although prevalent mutations such as R201C and R201H dominate in FD, a limited number of rare mutations, including R201S, R201G, and Q227L, have been documented. The scarcity of information concerning these uncommon mutations motivates our investigation, seeking to enhance comprehension of this less-explored subgroup within FD.
