Abstract
Five clinically typical cases of fibrous dysplasia are analysed. Histopathologic and histochemical study revealed great variability from one lesion to another, and in one and the same specimen. One case showed the histologic features of fibrous dysplasia, ossifying fibroma and giant cementoma. The microscopic appearance of fibrous dysplasia is affected by the age of the process and of the patient. Definitive pathologic differentiation between the benign fibro-osseus lesions of the jaw bones can be made on the basis of microscopic characteristics together with clinical findings. The best way of treating fibrous dysplasia is by conservative surgery. In one case postoperative regrowth was successfully controlled with ACTH and oxyphenbutazone.
