[Fibrous dysplasia].
Fibrous dysplasia of bone may occur also in the facial skeleton. Main locations are the lateral midface and the mandible. The foci, which are sharply circumscribed in most cases, produce tumour-simulating deformities of single of several facial bones and, in part, disorders of the articulation are bulbar displacements. In contrast to Paget's disease, fibrous dysplasia is a disorder of the younger age groups. Apart from bony changes, Albright's syndrome (which occurs in women only) comprises also irregular, circumscribed café-au-lait patches and signs of somatic and sexual precocity.
