Fibrous Dysplasia Involving Maxillary Sinus: A Rare Case Report

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 8

Abstract

Benign fibro-osseous lesions of the craniofacial complex are represented by a variety of disease processes that are characterized by pathologic ossifications and calcifications in association with a hyper cellular fibroblastic marrow element. The current classification includes neoplasms, developmental dysplastic lesions and inflammatory/reactive processes. The definitive diagnosis can rarely be rendered on the basis of histopathologic features alone; rather, procurement of a final diagnosis is usually dependent upon assessment of microscopic, clinical and imaging features together. We present one such case of fib osseous lesion which was diagnosed as fibrous dysplasia upon histopathological examination.
