Fibrous dysplasia is a non- neoplastic hamartomatous developmental fibro osseous lesion of bone. This paper provides a brief overview of fibrous dysplasia in a historic perspective and highlights the controversies in fibrous dysplasia seen in the cranio- maxillofacial lesions. A case report of a young woman is presented who was diagnosed as having maxillofacial fibrous dysplasia, thereby making an attempt to use this term in cases with relatively limited facial bone disease.
骨纤维异常增殖症是一种非肿瘤性错构瘤样发育性骨纤维骨性病变。本文从历史角度简要概述了骨纤维异常增殖症，并强调了在颅颌面病变中骨纤维异常增殖症存在的争议。本文还报告了一例年轻女性被诊断为颌面部骨纤维异常增殖症的病例，从而尝试在面部骨病相对局限的病例中使用这一术语。
