Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia is characterized by excessive proliferation of bone-forming mesenchymal cells. The maxilla is the most commonly affected facial bone, with facial asymmetry being the usual complaint. Surgery is the treatment of choice with two available options: conservative bone shaving or radical excision and reconstruction. We describe two cases of monofocal fibrous dysplasia of the midface causing facial asymmetry and treated by conservative surgery with good esthetic results.
