    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Monostotic fibrous dysplasia of cranial bones is rare. Conservative surgery is recommended for most cases, but complex ethmoid lesions may require neurosurgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Orthopedics
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Monostotic fibrous dysplasia (MFD) is an uncommon benign bone disorder.
    • It affects the cranial bones, presenting diagnostic challenges.
    • MFD shares etiological theories with polyostotic forms and related conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present three cases of monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the cranial bones.
    • To discuss the etiology and differential diagnosis of MFD.
    • To outline appropriate surgical management strategies based on lesion location.

    Main Methods:

    • Case study presentation of three patients with MFD.
    • Review of existing literature on fibrous dysplasia etiology and management.
    • Analysis of diagnostic challenges and clinical presentations relevant to ENT surgeons.

    Main Results:

    • MFD of the cranial bones presents unique diagnostic and management considerations.
    • Maxillary and temporal lesions are best treated with conservative surgery.
    • Ethmoid lesions eroding critical structures may necessitate a neuro-surgical approach.

    Conclusions:

    • Conservative surgical management is effective for most cranial monostotic fibrous dysplasia.
    • Neurosurgical intervention is indicated for complex ethmoid MFD involving the optic foramen or skull base.
    • Radiotherapy is not recommended for treating fibrous dysplasia.
