Posttraumatic Reactive Fibrous Bone Neoformation of the Anterior Skull Base Mimicking Osteosarcoma

Abstract: Objectives: Malignant bone tumors and fibro-osseous bone lesions of the skull base are uncommon, although fibrous dysplasia in this anatomic location is not a rare condition. In general, fibro-osseous lesions of the skull are often difficult to classify on either clinical presentation, radiological findings, or histological presentation alone. The objective of this article is to present a probably important differential in the management of bony neoformations of the skull and to highlight the diagnostic diffic… Show more

“…Furthermore, the variable clinical, radiological and histological presentations of FD, as well as apparent risk of malignant transformation, cause some dental practitioners to delay or avoid dental surgical procedures in FD 32, 3436 . Also, some dental healthcare providers may also feel uneasy about treating FD/MAS patients because of previous subjective reports that dental surgery might exacerbate jaw FD, transforming a quiescent lesion to an aggressively growing lesion 32, 33, 40 . There are also concerns regarding bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) 29, 30, 32, 34, 35, 37 .…”
