Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia is a fairly common, well demarcated, misdifferentiation of the bone-forming mesenchyme affecting a single, several, or many bones, in which skeletal changes are the salient feature, but in which certain endocrinopathies, abnormal pigmentation of skin and mucous membranes, and occasionally other abnormalities form part of the entire disease process. The clinical and pathological aspects of the disease and its involvement with the temporal bone have been previously discussed. Two recent case histories are added here.
