Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare benign skeletal disorder that replaces normal bone with fibrous tissue and immature woven bone. We present a case of a 13-year-old girl with right-sided facial swelling and craniofacial deformity since birth, accompanied by nasal obstruction and difficulty in breathing and swallowing. Computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed an expansile bony lesion with a ground-glass matrix involving multiple craniofacial bones. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of FD. Management involved regular monitoring and conservative measures, with surgical intervention reserved for symptomatic progression or cosmetic concerns. This case underscores the importance of considering FD in the differential diagnosis of craniofacial asymmetry and highlights the collaborative approach to patient care. Further research is needed to optimize management strategies and outcomes for pediatric patients with FD.
