摘要
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign, developmental fibro-osseous bone disease which is usually recognized in childhood, grows slowly, and stabilizes in early adult life. An unusual case of aggressive growth of fibrous dysplasia of the mandible, as diagnosed by radiographs and histopathologic analysis, during childhood period is presented. The patient had a painless mass of the lower jaw of 2-year duration measuring 20 cm x 25 cm which was surgically excised. This case illustrates the need for Head and Neck practitioners to formulate a broad differential diagnosis in pediatric craniofacial masses. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
