Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental anomaly of bone formation that may exist in a monostotic or polystotic form. Surgical treatment is considered advisable only with presence of significant or progressive deformity or persistent pain. Early surgery is indicated before the tumor expands or fracture occurs. We reviewed a series of 21 patients, 14 had monostotic whereas 7 had polystotic fibrous dysplasia. There was no case of Mc Cune Albright. We treated all of these patients with curettage and corticocancellous bone graft and also fixation with reconstruction nails. Follow up ranged between 1 and 5 years. Functional and radiographic outcomes were scored.Background
