[Variants of surgical interventions in cases of a craniofacial form of fibrous dysplasia]
Abstract
From 1980 till now we observed 6 cases of fibrous dysplasia primarily in patients of an older age group with a long history of the disease. Indications to operative interventions were such increasing clinical manifestations as functional derangements, progressing pain syndrome, suspected malignant transformation. In 1 patient with fibrous dysplasia after carried out earlier radiotherapy we observed malignant transformation into sarcoma with process progressing and lethal outcome. Variants of extended operative interventions in cases of craniofacial form of fibrous dysplasia are discussed as well as modern techniques of reconstruction of such defects of craniofacial zone.
