Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia lesions is a descriptive term used to denote lesions that demonstrate replacements of normal bone by a fibrous connective tissue matrix, within which varying amounts of immature and mature bone & in some instances, cementous like tissue are deposited. It is described as one of the most perplexing diseases of osseous tissue of unknown etiology, uncertain pathology, and diverse histopathology. Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental tumor-like condition or as considered by many authors as the hamartomatous lesion affecting the maxillofacial region more commonly. The three common variants of fibrous dyplasia like polyostotic fibrous dysplasia craniofacial fibrous dysplasia and monostotic fibrous dysplasia are reviewed in detail in this article.
