Fibrous dysplasia has various ways of presentation including syndromic associations and secondary changes within the lesion. We present a case of a 21-year-old female with craniofacial fibrous dysplasia, presenting with proptosis and intermittent blurring of vision due to focal fibrous dysplasia involving the frontal bone with secondary aneurysmal bone formation that was provisionally diagnosed on imaging and confirmed on histopathology. This case demonstrates the typical imaging findings of fibrous dysplasia with seldom encountered secondary aneurysmal bone cyst formation and also discusses about the pathology and management of the craniofacial fibrous dysplasia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
