A rare, radiographic 'sunray' appearance in fibrous dysplasia.
We report a case of a 19-year-old Thai woman who had fibrous dysplasia (FD) with a rare radiographic 'sunray' appearance. The sunray appearance could have been due to either an unusual pattern of calcification within the lesion or a periosteal reaction.
