Fibrous dysplasia is a rare fibroosseous lesion characterized by replacement of normal spongiosa and filling of the medullary cavity of affected bones by an abnormal fibrous tissue. the skeletal structure. Its appearance in infancy is extremely rare. The authors report a case of maxillary fibrous dysplasia observed in a 36 days old infant as a left maxillary swelling. Excisional biopsy was performed to confirm diagnosis. At 1 year follow up, no new growth has been observed without further treatment. This is the youngest case never reported at any references.
