Abstract

|
|
|
Fibrous dysplasia is a condition characterized by the replacement of the medullary component of predominantly long bone with fibrous tissues. The monostotic form of the fibrous dysplasia occurs more frequent than the polyostotic form. Only the twenty three previous cases of vertebral involvement in monostotic fibrous dysplasia have been reported. Authors experienced a case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the third lumbar vertebra, so we report this case. Report details the diagnosis and treatment of a 34 years old man with back pain from monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the third lumbar vertebra. We discuss the experience in the consideration of previous report to recommend the optimal management of this disease.
