Concomitant Occurrence of Fibrous Dysplasia and Epilepsy: Report of an Unusual Case

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a developmental anomaly in which normal bone is gradually replaced with fibrous connective tissue. There are two variants: monostotic and polyostotic. The diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia is generally made on the basis of clinical and radiographic findings .The association between epilepsy and craniofacial fibrous dysplasia is rather unusual. A clinician must be vigilant and cognizant of this association so that a prompt referral and treatment may be achieved. A case of fibrous dysplasia is presented here which was seen co-existing with epileptic seizures.
