“…McCune and Bruch and Albright and co-workers in separate publications mentioned about the term osteodystrophia fi brosa disseminate, characterized by endocrinopathies, cutaneous hyperpigmentation and precocious puberty in females in 1937. [1] In the following year Lichtenstein coined the terms fi brous dysplasia and polyostotic fi brous dysplasia.…”

Hearing outcome after surgical intervention in fibrous dysplasia of temporal bone

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign disease where all components of normal bone are present, but they fail to differentiate into mature structures. Management of temporal bone fi brous dysplasia is conservative. Surgery usually in the form of canaloplasty is performed in cases of complication like hearing loss, canal cholesteatoma, etc., In this report we would like to give emphasis on the role of mastoid exploration in the treatment of fi brous dysplasia of temporal bone especially in context of hearing results. 2 cases of temporal bone fi brous dysplasia underwent surgical treatment in a tertiary hospital. Hearing of the patient improved signifi cantly in one case whereas there was no auditory benefi t in the other case with inner ear involvement.

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign developmental anomaly of bone, often affecting craniofacial bones. We report on a 9-year-old boy, who presented for routine checkup. Clinical examination revealed unilateral exophthalmos of his left eye without decrease of visual acuity or double vision. Radiologic studies showed characteristic extensive changes of fibrous dysplasia involving the left frontal bone, left orbital bones, maxillary and sphenoid bones. The patient was started on conservative therapy and the condition of the affected eye remained stable. As fibrous dysplasia of the orbital bones can be a cause of significant dysfunction and a treatable cause of blindness, early diagnosis is very important. These patients are most likely to present with complaints of facial asymmetry, including axial, vertical, or horizontal displacement of the globe, or visual loss. Therefore the ophthalmologist plays an important role in the early diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia.

“…Eine seltene Sonderform der polyostotischen FD mit einer Inzidenz von 3 % aller Fälle mit FD wird als McCune-Albright-Syndrom bezeichnet. Hierbei imponiert klinisch eine Trias aus der polyostotischen Variante der FD, Pigmentanomalien meist in Form von CafØ-au-lait-Flecken, eventuell auch an Lippen-und Mundschleimhaut sowie Endokrinopathien, beispielsweise im Sinne einer Pubertas praecox oder Akromegalie [2,18,19]. Differenzialdiagnostisch kommen zahlreiche andere gutartige Knochenerkrankungen wie Fibrome, Chondrome oder der Morbus Paget in Betracht [5,8,15].…”

“…Die Ätiologie der Fibrösen Dysplasie (FD) im Gesichtsschädelbereich gilt immer noch als nicht restlos aufgeklärt. Die mit 1 : 4000 -10 000 äu-ßerst geringe Zahl von Erkrankungsfällen mag hierfür einer der Gründe sein [1,2]. Pathophysiologisch wird die FD als eine mesenchymale Knochenentwicklungsstörung gedeutet [3].…”

Current imaging procedures allow differential diagnosis from other benign bone tumors but also from malignancies. The therapy of FD is conservative (wait and scan) or operative in dependence on the localisation, the extension and the clinical manifestations of the disease. In the future molecular biological methods could function as supporting instrument for diagnosis if histomorphological results are not meaningful.
