Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) is a scarce noncancerous bone condition characterized by the failure to form mature lamellar bone and arrest in the form of woven bone, resulting in deformities and functional limitations. Extreme forms of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia can lead to leontiasis ossea, an exceptionally uncommon presentation. We report a case of a 32-year-old man displaying facial abnormalities indicative of leontiasis ossea. Through radiographic and histopathological assessments, the diagnosis of PFD was confirmed. Surgical intervention was undertaken to address symptoms and enhance facial appearance. This case underscores the diagnostic and therapeutic complexities associated with PFD featuring leontiasis ossea and underscores the significance of a collaborative medical approach.
多骨型纤维性发育不良（PFD）是一种罕见的非癌性骨病，其特征是无法形成成熟的板层骨，并以编织骨的形式停滞生长，导致畸形和功能受限。颅面纤维性发育不良的极端形式可导致狮面骨病，这是一种极为罕见的表现。我们报告一例32岁男性，表现出提示狮面骨病的面部异常。通过影像学和组织病理学评估，确诊为PFD。采取了手术干预以解决症状并改善面部外观。该病例强调了与伴有狮面骨病的PFD相关的诊断和治疗复杂性，并强调了协作医疗方法的重要性。
