“…Van Horn, Dahlin & Bickel (1963) reported the presence of "cementicles" in ten instances of fibrous dysplasia of extragnathic sites while Friedman & Goldtnan (1969) reported two cases of cementoma arising in the humerus and femur, respectively. A cursory review of the literature has yielded 34 cases of extragtiathic ossifying fibroma of facial bones, primarily frontal and ethmoid, which are composed almost exclusively of spheroidal calcifications microscopically indistinguishable from so-called central cementifying fibroma (Beck 1930, Betijamins 1938, Billings & Ringertz 1946, Bruntier 1952, Eden 1939, Eggston & Wolff 1947, Eichen & Schurmann 1937, Feiring, Feiring & Davidoff 1951, Fetissof 1929, Fry & DeLong 1941, Gass 1965, Geschickter 1936, GogI 1949, Harpman I960, Hoboek 1951, Lehner 1969, Rossi & Cherubini 1961, Schwaitz 1964, Skolnik & Fornatto 1955, Smith & Zavaleta 1952, Stamm 1956, Thomas & Kasper 1966, Towson 1950, Ueda et al 1967, Wong, Vaughati & Strong 1965, W^oodruff 1945.…”

4hxtract. A tolal of 841 reviewed cases and 75 reported cases ol' fibro-osseous lesions of the jaws, excluding (he giant cell group, are analyzed willi regard lo elinical. radiographic, and hislologic features. Precise criteria for Ihe differential diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia, ossifying fibroma, gigantiform cemenloma, chronie diffuse selerosing osteomyelitis, foeal sclerosing osteomyelitis, and periapical cementoma have been ptese/ited with emphasis on radiographic and behavioral features.

A 28-year-old man presented with monostotic fronto-orbital fibrous dysplasia associated with convulsions. Signs of meningeal irritation were observed. Computed tomography (CT) showed right frontal sinusitis, and destruction from the inner to outer table with expansion of the diploic space. T 1 -and T 2 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging showed an abnormal low-intensity mass, with heterogeneous gadolinium enhancement. Although the meningitis resolved, signs of infection continued for 2 months due to sinusitis. Treatment of the right frontal sinusitis was undertaken, accompanied by open biopsy. The histological diagnosis was fibrous dysplasia. Once the infection had completely resolved, orbitofrontal reconstruction was undertaken. Cranioplasty was carried out using cranial bone cement. Three-dimensional CT was valuable to show the likely postoperative result.
