Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia(FD) of the bone is a slowly progressive, benign disease of unknown cause where normal architectures are replaced with fibrous and osteoid tissue. FD of the maxilla usually manifests as a bony enlargement with painless swelling and bone deformity, contouring to facial asymmetry. The lesion may involve the nasal fossae, orbits, or alveolus bone, causing diverse functional disturbance. Treatment options range from shaving to total maxillectomy and reconstruction depending on the presenting symptoms. Shaving, partial maxillectomy and maxillary sinus formation was performed in 5 patients with fibrous dysplasia in the past 2 years. Follow up period ranged from 1 month to 11 months. Aesthetic appearance, CT findings, and relief from symptoms were compared. In all patients, facial asymmetry was restored to symmetry and nasal obstructive symptoms were improved. With this procedure, expansion of the lesion will be controlled until puberty, preventing the development of new functional disturbances. After puberty, no further treatment can be anticipated due to the growth arrest inherent to the disease.
