Fibrous dysplasia, also osteitis fibrosa, is a rare disorder of bone that has a distinctive microscopic appearance.
General
Classification:
- Monostotic - one bone involved, ~80% of cases.
- Polyostotic - several bones involved, ~20% of cases.
- May be associated with McCune-Albright syndrome.
Microscopic
Features:[1]
- Woven bone with odd irregular shapes - key feature.
- Described as "chinese characters".[2]
- Fibrous tissue around bone.
Notes:
- No osteoblastic rimming.
DDx:
- Desmoplastic fibroma - has lamellar bone.
- Low grade fibrosarcoma.
- Low-grade central osteosarcoma.[3]
- Gnathic ossifying fibroma (Cemento-ossifying fibroma)[4][5] - Prominent calcified spherules, no associated GNAS mutation
- Gnathic ossifying fibroma recurs and needs to be completely enucleated
- Fibrous dysplasia may be self limited and can be followed with observation or if symptomatic bisphosphonate therapy is an option.
- Distinguishing between these two is important

Molecular
- Postzygotic (somatic) activating mutations of the GNAS1 gene 10, which encodes the α-subunit of the stimulatory G-protein Gs[6]
- Both mono and polyostatic cases.
- Causative molecular lesion of McCune-Albright and Mazzabraud syndrome
