Polyostotic craniofacial fibrous dysplasia with bizarre radiologic finding: Mandible, anterior skull base, frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital bones involvement

چکیده
A 30‐year‐old man presented with progressive blurred vision and cosmetic facial problems within 2 years ago. Neurological examination demonstrated impaired visual acuity and constricted visual field associated with both forehead and right side craniofacial deformity in the general examination. The craniofacial computed tomography (CT) scan showed expansion and thickening in right mandible, anterior skull base (including sphenoid, orbital roof, and ethmoidal bones), clival part of the occipital bone, right temporal, frontal, and parietal bones and also left frontal bone [Figures 1 and 2]. Figure 1c revealed narrowing of the optic canal and nerve entrapment. He advised for surgical intervention, but denied the surgery. DISCUSSION

CT Imaging of Craniofacial Fibrous Dysplasia
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibroosseous bone dysplasia that can involve single (monostotic) or multiple (polyostotic) bones. Monostotic form is more frequent in the jaws. It is termed as craniofacial fibrous dysplasia, when it involves, though rarely, adjacent craniofacial bones. A 16-year-old girl consulted for a painless swelling in the right posterior mandible for two years. Panoramic rad...

An elderly woman presented with a history of slow and progressive facial asymmetry since childhood. Physical examination revealed painless right facial enlargement involving the soft tissue and bony structures of the maxilla and mandible (image A). A plain radiograph revealed hazy radiopacities with a ground glass appearance (image B), suggestive of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (FD). Transoral...

Introdouction: Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous lesion that affects craniofacial bones including the maxilla and mandible. In the most cases of fibrous dysplasia of facial bones, radiographic findings represent lucent or mixed radiolucent-radiopaque lesion with ill-defined borders and gradual blending of its border with adjacent bone . In this presentation, a patient suffering ...
متن کاملManagement of cerebrospinal fluid leakage in combination with craniofacial fibrous dysplasia
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign bone disorder that most commonly affects craniofacial bones; one or multiple adjacent bones can be involved which can severely deform the skull base. Cerebrospinal fluid leakage in combination with extensive craniofacial fibrous dysplasia is an extremely rare condition that leads to complicated skull base deformation and possible neurovascular structure impingement...
متن کاملCraniofacial Fibrous Dysplasia
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is an osseous growth dis-order, producing immature bone and characte-rized by the replacement of normal bone with fibro-osseous connective tissue. It is a bone dys-plasia that has the potential to cause significant cosmetic and functional disturbances, particularly in the craniofacial skeleton. Cra-niofacial fibrous dysplasia is one of the three types of polyostotic fibro...
