Fibrous dysplasia can be monostotic or, less commonly, polyostotic. The imaging features of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia may closely mimic those of metastatic bone disease, Paget disease, or enchondromatosis (Ollier disease). We present a unique case of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia in a 57-year-old female with a medical history of enchondromas involving the proximal phalanges of the left hand...

We present the case of a patient with craniofacial polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia is relatively rare and usually presents in late childhood/early adulthood. It is occasionally associated with endocrine disorders such as McCune-Albright syndrome. The benign pathology of this bone tumor belies its implications in the region of the skull base. Craniofacial polyostotic...

  A 29- year old female with bone pain and history of precocious puberty was referred for bone scintigraphy. On physical examination café au lait macular spots were noted on her neck, buttocks and left leg. Bone scan showed multiple areas of intense increased activity which was in favour of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. Considering the presence of polyostotic fibrous...

The McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS) is a sporadic rare disease first described in 1936 by McCune and separately by Albright. MAS is characterized by a triad of physical signs: café-au-lait spots, polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and autonomous endocrine hyperfunction. MAS is predominantly observed in girls and is rarely reported in males. We report the case of a 9-year old boy with gonadotropin ind...

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare bone disorder in which the affected replaced by abnormal scar-like(fibrous) connective tissue. This fibrous tissue makes weak, abnormally fragile and proneto fracture. Pain may occur areas. condition was first described 1942 Lichtenstein andJaffe, also referred as Lichtenstein-Jaffe disease. Anyone can have FD it be diagnosed at any age. FDcan affect one (known ...

Aim. Fibrous dysplasia is a rare bone disease caused by missense mutation leading to abnormal fibroblast and osteoblast proliferation and increased bone resorption. FD can present in monostotic or polyostotic forms. About 3% of FD could be in association with McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). Because FD is a rare disease, there is limited data in the literature about characteristics of disease an...
