[Differential diagnosis of fibrous osteodysplasia of the bones of the skull].
The work deals with the results of clinical and X-ray examination of 96 patients with fibrous dysplasia of the skull bones; 60 (62.5%) of these patients were sent to the clinic with an erroneous diagnosis. Sarcoma, osteoma, and osteoblastoclastoma were the most frequently recorded erroneous diagnosis. The condition of the end plates and the structure of the pathological focus are of leading importance in the differential diagnosis of the disease discussed. The pain syndrome, the soft-tissue component and the periosteal spicules and peaks are not encountered in fibrous osteodysplasia. The zone of the anomaly progresses only in the period of body formation. In adults osteodysplasia follows a stable course.
