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.
