Fibrous dysplasia: Radiology

Fibrous Dysplasia Radiology
Location:
• Involves the maxilla almost twice often as the mandible
• Most commonly posterior region.
• Commonly unilateral and very rarely bilateral.
Periphery
:
Periphery of the lesion is most commonly ill-defined and blends imperceptibly with the normal bone.
Periphery of the young lesions sometimes appears to be sharp and even corticated.
Internal structures
Density and trabecular pattern of the lesion vary considerably
Variation is more pronounced in Mandible and more homogenous in maxilla.
The internal aspect of bone is of 3 tyeps
-
More radiolucent than normal
Less radiolucent than normal
Mixture of these 2 lesions
The early lesions appears as a cyst like radiolucency in the jaws
Sometimes it appears to have granular internal septa, giving internal aspect a multilocular appearance.
Trabeculae: Abnormal trabeculae usually are shorten, thinner, irregularly shaped and more numerous than normal trabeculae.
The altered trabeculae may give rise to various appearance such as:
- Orange peel (Peau d’orange)
Ground glass
Thumb print
Cotton wool
Simple bone cyst like bone cavities are seen and occurs more commonly in mandibular lesions.
Effects on surrounding structures
:
Small lesion has no effect on surrounding structure
Typically cause enlargement of the bone from within cause ribbon like thinning of cortex.
Expansion of the bone is even along it’s length rather than the more concentric expansion seen with benign tumors.
Vertical depth of the mandible is often increased
In the maxilla the lesion encroaches the sinus usually from the lateral wall and last section of the sinus to be involved is the most postero-superior portion.
Normal anatomic shape of the antrum is most oftenly maintained
Lamina dura of the teeth in the affected area of the bone become indistinct.
PDL space may appear to be very narrow.
FD can displace teeth and interfere with normal eruption.
Superior displacement of the IAN canal is another typical finding of FD.
Rarely there is root resorption.

My considerable internet research has finally paid off and recognized with extremely good facts to exchange with my
friends and the world. Medical Doctors and Dermatologists said (HSV 1&2, Herpes zosters) do not have a medical cure because the virus is capable of hiding within the human cells, it remains protected from your immune system. Herpes isn't an incurable virus! your immune system has the tools to fight it back. But because it is able to lay dormant in protected cells, your immune system is unable to remove it from your body, But with strong reactive herbal medication, it is capable of getting rid of the virus gradually and totally from your body without any side effects, natural herbs kill the virus totally not just reducing the outbreaks. I just got my test result today after 7 days of using the herbal Medication and it came out Negative to both HSV 1&2.im so delighted I recommend this to anyone suffering from herpes virus. You can get natural Herbal Medication from Dr. Aloha contact him through his email: [e-mail] or WhatsApp [phone]
