“…Fibrous dysplasia is a benign medullary fibroosseous lesion in which normal bone is replaced by irregularly shaped immature bone and fibrous connective tissue [1][2][3][4]. This lesion can occur in the monostotic form with a solitary lesion affecting one bone or the polyostotic form with lesions affecting multiple bones [5][6][7].…”

“…The monostotic form of fibrous dysplasia accounts for between 70-80% of all cases of fibrous dysplasia and the polysostotic form represents 20-30% [2,[8][9]. Fibrous dysplasia is grouped among bone tumours of undefined neoplastic nature which were formally called tumour-like lesions of bone.…”

“…As many as 75% of patients with fibrous dysplasia present within the first three decades of life, however presentation is earlier for patients with the polyostotic form in which a majority present in the first decade [11][12]. The monostotic form of fibrous dysplasia does not show a gender bias, while the polyostotic form shows a female predilection [2]. Fibrous dysplasia can affect any bone with, the craniofacial bones, femur and ribs among the common sites of diagnosis [5,[11][12][13].…”

“…Fibrous dysplasia can affect any bone with, the craniofacial bones, femur and ribs among the common sites of diagnosis [5,[11][12][13]. The polyostotic form has a high tendency of affecting the craniofacial bones and a tendency to involve bones on only one side of the body in some patients [2].…”

“…A definitive diagnosis usually requires a histopathological analysis due to the difficulty in differentiating it clinically and radiologically from some of its differential diagnosis especially in the craniofacial lesions [1]. Common differentials of fibrous dysplasia include Non-ossyfying fibroma, aneurysmal bone cyst, adamantinoma, giant cell tumour, low grade osteosarcoma and Paget's disease of bone [1,2,11,12]. This study aims to analyze the age at diagnosis, sex, and site affected by fibrous dysplasia diagnosed in our health facility and to compare our findings to other published literature.…”

Aims: This study aims to document the age, sex and site distribution of fibrous dysplasia in our tertiary health care facility in order to compare our findings with published literature. Study Design: This is a hospital-based retrospective and descriptive study extending from 1st January 2005 to 31st December 2019. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Histopathology, Jos University Teaching Hospital, Jos, Plateau State in North-Central Nigeria between 1st January 2005 to 31st December 2019. Materials and Methods: Materials consisted of Archival slides, paraffin wax tissue blocks, surgical pathology register and case files of all cases of fibrous dysplasia diagnosed histologically during the period of review. The age, sex and site affected by the tumour were documented for each case using both electronic and hard copy records. The histology slides were examined to confirm the diagnosis. A total of 165 primary bone tumours (103 benign and 63 malignant) were recorded during the period of review, of which 28 were fibrous dysplasia. Results: There were 28 cases of fibrous dysplasia which represented 17% of the primary bone tumours and 27% of the benign bone tumours. A half (50%) of the cases occurred in the second decade and 82.1% of cases were diagnosed in craniofacial bones. There was no sex bias in diagnosis. Conclusion: Fibrous dysplasia is a relatively common bone tumour in our environment. The sex distribution, age at diagnosis, and bones affected is in keeping with findings by authors from other parts of the world.

Summary: Fibrous dysplasia is a benign disease of unclear aetiology that is congenital and recurring in nature. It is caused by a problem known as bone modelling, in which the normal bone constantly changes and is replaced by immature fibrous tissue. One or more bones may be impacted by the lesion; the maxilla is the most often afflicted facial bone. Expansile lesions known as fibrous dysplasia lead to issues related to the original location. The most often involved region in the craniofacial bone is the maxilla. In this case report 50 years 50-year-old female patient reported who has maxillary fibrous dysplasia. Keywords: fibrous dysplasia, congenital, bone.
