Abstrakt: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a common benign skeletal lesion that may involve one bone (monostotic) or multiple bones (polyostotic) and occurs throughout the skeleton with a predilection for the long bones, ribs and craniofacial bones. Monostotic FD accounts for 70 to 80% of FDs and 10 to 25% of the cases occur in craniofacial region, and these are common in 20 to 30 years age group. Here, we report a case of monostotic FD of maxilla which was treated surgically by surgical recontouring. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
