Fibrous dysplasia (FD) has been regarded as a developmental skeletal disorder characterized by replacement of normal bone with benign cellular fibrous connective tissue. It has now become evident that FD is a genetic disease caused by somatic activating mutation of the Gsα subunit of G protein-coupled receptor. Here we report a case of bilateral monostotic FD in a middle-aged female showing a classic histological picture, but radiologically presenting as a mixed radiolucent radiopaque lesion showing nonspecific cystic degeneration.
骨纤维异常增殖症(FD)被认为是一种发育性骨骼疾病,其特征是正常骨被良性细胞性纤维结缔组织所替代。现在已经明确,FD是一种由G蛋白偶联受体的Gsα亚基的体细胞激活突变引起的遗传性疾病。在此,我们报告一例中年女性双侧单发性FD病例,其组织学表现典型,但放射学上表现为混合性透射线不透射线病变,显示非特异性囊性退变。
