Curr Eye Res 2024; 49:996-1003. [PMID: 38708814 DOI: 10.1080/02713683.2024.2349634] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To summarize the clinical manifestations of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) patients with ocular complications, and find effective methods to diagnose early. METHODS Nine CFD patients with ocular complications, and their parents were recruited in this study. All patients underwent ocular and systemic examinations. Bone lesions from all patients and peripheral blood from patients and their parents were collected for whole exome sequencing (WES). According to the screening for low-frequency deleterious variants, and bioinformatics variants prediction software, possible disease-causing variants were found in multiple CFD patients. The variants were validated by Sanger sequencing. Trio analysis was performed to verify the genetic patterns of CFD. RESULTS All patients were diagnosed with CFD, according to the clinical manifestations, classic radiographic appearance, and pathological biopsy. The main symptoms of the 9 CFD patients, included visual decline (9/9), craniofacial deformity (3/9) and strabismus (2/9), with few extraocular manifestations. The family backgrounds of all the CFD patients indicated that only the patient was affected, and their immediate family members were normal. GNAS variants were identified in all bone lesions from CFD patients, including two variant types: c.601C > T:p.R201C(6/9) and c.602G > A:p.R201H (3/9) in exon 8. The detection rate reached 100% by WES, but only 77.8% by Sanger sequencing. Interestingly, we found GNAS variants could not be detected in peripheral blood samples from CFD patients or their parents, and other potentially disease-causing gene variants related to CFD were not found. CONCLUSIONS For CFD patients with bone lesions involving the optic canal or sphenoid sinus regions, ocular symptoms should also be considered. Furthermore, we confirmed that CFD is not inherited, somatic variants in the GNAS gene are the main pathogenic gene causing CFD. Compared to the traditional methods in molecular genetic diagnosis of CFD, WES is more feasible and effective but limited in the type of samples.

Abstract
Craniofacial fibro-osseous lesions represent a diverse spectrum of pathologic conditions where fibrous tissue replaces healthy bone, resulting in the formation of irregular, woven bone. They are more commonly diagnosed in young people, with treatment strategies dependent on clinical behavior and skeletal maturity. This article discusses the examples of craniofacial fibro-osseous lesions, based on the latest classifications, along with their diagnostic criteria and management.

Abstract
Background Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous lesion where normal bone is replaced with immature dysplastic woven bone and fibrous tissue. Fibrous dysplasia has the potential to involve multiple bones of the craniofacial area in a rare condition. Management of this involvement type should be assessed carefully. Case report Here, we report a 52-year-old man with progressive and bilateral frontal headache. The radio/pathologic diagnosis revealed fibrous dysplasia of paranasal sinuses with anterior skull-base extension and pneumocephalus. The patient underwent a craniotomy, and 2 weeks after the procedure, the symptoms were alleviated without any complications. Conclusion in case of fibrous dysplasia, patients with new onset and/or mild symptoms may have extensive lesions in multiple craniofacial bones.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare genetic disease with benign bone tumors. FD can affect one (monostotic FD) or multiple bones (polyostotic FD), with craniofacial lesions being common. Because of its rarity, there are only few clinical reports on FD in the head and neck region and its clinical characteristics remain incompletely defined. This study aimed to determine patient demographics, symptoms, diagnostics, and given treatment in patients with FD of the head and neck in a Finnish population. METHODS A retrospective review on all patients diagnosed with or treated for FD of the head and neck at the Helsinki University Hospital during 2005-2020. RESULTS In total 74 patients were identified; 54% were male and the mean age 45 years. Overall 95% had monostotic FD. Mandibula and maxilla were the most common anatomic sites. Majority of patients had symptoms, most commonly pain and lesion growth, and 49% had extra-skeletal symptoms. For all, diagnosis was primarily based on imaging findings, biopsies were obtained from 41%. Altogether 54 patients (73%) were managed by observation only, 20 patients (27%) received treatment; ten bisphosphonates, six surgery and four both. CONCLUSION Although highly variable in its clinical manifestations, head and neck FD lesions are often symptomatic and impose risk for extra-skeletal complications. Treatment is often conservative but should be individually tailored. Future studies are encouraged to better define the disease characteristics and hopefully offer new treatment possibilities.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), parathyroid hormone levels, and calcium levels in patients diagnosed with benign fibro-osseous lesions such as fibrous dysplasia (FD), ossifying fibroma (OF), central giant cell granulomas (GCG). METHODS This is a retrospective, single-center study from a sample of patients who underwent surgical treatment of FD, OF, and GCG at Mayo Clinic between 1996 and 2021. Patient demographics, history of PHPT, histopathological diagnosis, and relevant laboratory values such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), serum calcium, vitamin D, and alkaline phosphatase were collected. RESULTS Of the patients diagnosed with FD (n = 64), OF (n = 24), and GCG (n = 5), a diagnosis of PHPT was found in 2 patients (3.1%), 1 patient (4.2%), and 0 patients (0%), respectively. Elevated PTH levels (>65 pg/mL) were observed in 3 patients (4.7%) with FD, 1 patient (4.2%) with OF, and 1 patient (20%) with GCG. Mean (standard deviation) calcium levels were 9.3 (0.6) mg/dL in the FD group, 9.4 (0.5) mg/dL in the OF group, and 9.3 (0.6) mg/dL in the GCG group. Patients with fibro-osseous jaw tumors including FD, OF, and GCG may have increased risk of PHPT compared to the general population. CONCLUSION Patients with benign jaw tumors including FD, OF, and GCG may have increased risk of PHPT compared to the general population. Surgeons treating these benign tumors need to be cognizant of these findings, obtain appropriate laboratory studies, and incorporate multidisciplinary care including endocrinologists, endocrine surgeons, and maxillofacial surgeons.

Abstract
CONTEXT Denosumab is an effective treatment for many receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL)-mediated disorders but there are potential safety considerations and limited data to guide its use in children and adolescents. OBJECTIVE This document seeks to summarize the evidence and provide expert opinion on safe and appropriate use of denosumab in pediatric RANKL-mediated disorders. PARTICIPANTS Ten experts in pediatric bone and mineral medicine from 6 countries with experience in the use of denosumab participated in the creation of this document. EVIDENCE Data were sourced from the published literature, primarily consisting of case reports/series and review articles because of the lack of higher level evidence. Expert opinion of the authors was used substantially when no published data were available. CONCLUSION Denosumab is an effective treatment for RANKL-mediated disorders in children and adolescents but is often not curative and, in some cases, is best used in conjunction with surgical or other medical treatments. Careful multidisciplinary planning is required to define the goals of treatment and expert oversight needed to manage the risk of mineral abnormalities. Substantive, collaborative research efforts are needed to determine optimal treatment regimens and minimize risks.

Abstract
This article discusses the orofacial clinicoradiographic features of systemic diseases that manifest in the orofacial region. The systemic diseases discussed are grouped into the following: autoimmune diseases, endocrine diseases, bone diseases, hematologic diseases, syndromes, and malignancies. The radiographic manifestation ranges from radiolucent bony destruction, increased bone density, calcification, thinning of cortical plate, loss of trabeculation, missing teeth, and supernumerary teeth. It is imperative for clinicians to be cognizant of these findings, as they may be the first manifestation of these systemic diseases.

Abstract
Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) may be associated with major cosmetic or functional consequences. However, management recommendations for CFD are currently unavailable. Therefore, this systematic literature review aimed to review the existing approaches for CFD management and propose a management algorithm. The focus question was "What are the different options for CFD treatment and their complication rates?" The MEDLINE database was searched, and 33 articles evaluating a total of 1154 patients were reviewed. The bias assessment showed that 20 of the 33 studies had a high or intermediate risk of bias, mainly because of retrospective data collection and small patient numbers. Radical surgery showed a lower recurrence rate than debulking, but its use should be weighed against the morbidity caused by the reconstruction performed in this technique. Orbital decompression using a radical technique or debulking is effective in cases showing exophthalmos or dystopia. Surveillance is a viable option for asymptomatic and/or non-progressive lesions. In cases showing optic nerve compression, prophylactic decompression should be avoided, and decompression should be performed only when patients show diminished visual acuity or visual field defect. Although bisphosphonates have shown efficacy in pain management, their posology requires further discussion. A management algorithm is presented.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare skeletal disorder in which normal bone is replaced by a fibro-osseous tissue, resulting in possible deformities and fractures. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to synthesize the available evidence on the use of antiresorptive drugs in FD in terms of changes in bone turnover markers (BTMs), bone mineral density (BMD), and reducing pain. Three databases were searched in October 2022, with an update in July 2023. Of the 1037 studies identified, 21 were retained after eligibility assessment. A random-effects model was used to calculate global effect size and the corresponding standard error. Pamidronate and Denosumab were the most reported drugs in a total of 374 patients assessed. The initiation of treatments was accompanied by an average reduction of 40.5% [CI95% -51.6, -29.3] in the bone resorption parameters, and 22.0% [CI95% -31.9, -12.1] in the parameters of bone formation after 6-12 months. BMD was increased in both FD lesions and in the unaffected skeleton. Pain was reduced by 32.7% [CI95% -52.7, -12.6] after 6-12 months of treatment, and by 44.5% [CI95% -65.3, -23.6] after a mean 41.2 months of follow-up. The variation in pain was highly correlated to variation in bone resorption (R2 = 0.08, p < 0.0001) and formation parameters (R2 = 0.17, p < 0.0001). This study supports the overall efficacy of antiresorptive therapies in terms of reducing bone remodeling, improving bone density, and pain in FD.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is a rare benign bone disorder characterized by the replacement of normal bone with fibroblastic and osteoblastic tissue. We present a case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia in a 25-year-old male patient. The case highlights the clinical presentation, radiographic features, and management approach for this condition. This report aims to contribute to the understanding of fibrous dysplasia and its management options. A 25-year-old male presented with a chief complaint of persistent left hip pain. The pain was described as a dull ache, associated with difficulty in weight-bearing activities. There was no history of trauma or constitutional symptoms. Physical examination revealed externally rotated left lower limb. Range of motion of the left hip could not be assessed due to pain, with no neurological deficits noted. Initial imaging included plain radiographs of the right femur, which demonstrated a radiolucent lesion with a ground-glass appearance and cortical thinning. Magnetic resonance imaging of both hip joints reveals an irregular T2 hyperintense and T1 hypointense lesion involving the left femoral neck; moreover, few tiny cystic spaces are seen within the lesion. Part of the lesion is extending into the superior-lateral aspect of the femoral head and surrounding bone marrow edema with minimal left hip joint effusion, features suggestive of a primary bony tumour. Plain computed tomography (CT) of the hip joint and pelvis was suggestive of an expansile lytic lesion with thin bony septation within and thick sclerotic margin in the left femoral head and greater trochanter associated with sub-capital femoral neck fracture suggestive of bone neoplasm (? giant cell tumour > simple bone cyst). A bone biopsy was performed, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia, with characteristic woven bone and fibrous stroma. In this case, after confirming the diagnosis, the patient was managed with total hip arthroplasty on the left side. Monostotic fibrous dysplasia is a rare benign bone disorder that can present with various clinical manifestations. Timely diagnosis through a combination of clinical, radiographic, and histopathological assessments is crucial. Management should be tailored to the patient's symptoms.

Abstract
GNASis a complex locus characterized by multiple transcripts and an imprinting effect. It orchestrates a variety of physiological processes via numerous signaling pathways. Human diseases associated with the GNAS gene encompass fibrous dysplasia (FD), Albright's Hereditary Osteodystrophy (AHO), parathyroid hormone(PTH) resistance, and Progressive Osseous Heteroplasia (POH), among others. To facilitate the study of the GNAS locus and its associated diseases, researchers have developed a range of mouse models. In this review, we will systematically explore the GNAS locus, its related signaling pathways, the bone diseases associated with it, and the mouse models pertinent to these bone diseases.

Kablan F. Alveolar Bone Box Ostectomy Grafted with Particulate Bone Substitute with Subsequent Dental Implant Placement in a Case of Craniofacial Fibrous Dysplasia Involving the Posterior Maxilla: Case Report and Literature Review. J Clin Med 2023; 12:6452. [PMID: 37892590 PMCID: PMC10607019 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12206452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with dysplastic bone diseases, including fibrous dysplasia (FD), represent a particular challenge for placement of dental implants. This is due to structural bony changes that may compromise the bone blood supply and plasticity, thus potentially affecting the process of osseointegration. This case report describes a novel approach for dental-implant-based rehabilitation of the posterior maxilla affected by craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD), with 7 years of treatment follow-up. CASE PRESENTATION A 35-year-old female patient was referred due to a suspected unidentified bone lesion affecting the left side of the maxilla. A clinical and radiographic diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia was confirmed through a wedge bone biopsy. Particulate bone substitute was packed into a box-shaped ostectomy area of the lesion in the affected maxillary alveolar ridge. This was followed by the placement of four implants 6 months post operation. The implants were successfully integrated, as confirmed by clinical examination over 7 years of follow up. CONCLUSION this treatment approach may be considered as a predictable and efficient treatment modality for dental implant rehabilitation in patients with a variety of fibro-osseous lesions, including fibrous dysplasia, which affect the alveolar bone.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is characterized by expansile fibro-osseous lesions that may occur in association with endocrinopathies as part of McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). Craniofacial FD is a significant source of morbidity and most commonly involves the gnathic bones. There is a critical need to understand the natural history and risk factors for gnathic FD progression to develop preventative trials and identify candidates for intervention. The purpose of this study was to characterize gnathic FD lesion expansion and to identify risk factors associated with lesion growth. Patients with gnathic FD and serial CT imaging were evaluated. Volumetric analyses of CT scans were performed using MIM Encore software. Generalized mixed model analysis was used to account for intra-subject correlation, with FD lesion volume as the dependent variable. In addition to age, effects of MAS-associated endocrinopathies, sex, disease severity, and bisphosphonate treatment were evaluated. A total of 104 total lesions in 52 patients were characterized longitudinally. Median age at initial scan was 8.8 years (range 3.4-18.8), and median age at final scan was 16.8 years (range 6.9-33.4 years). The median number of scans per subject was 4 (range 2-14). FD lesion volume increased with age (2.50 cm3 /yr, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.95-3.04, p < 0.001). However, lesion expansion rate decreased over time (-0.05 cm3 /yr, 95% CI -0.07 to 0.04, p < 0.001). Mandibular lesions tended to expand at a greater rate than maxillary lesions (p < 0.001). Growth hormone excess was associated with accelerated expansion rate (p = 0.002). Other MAS-associated endocrinopathies, pubertal status, sex, weight, lesion density, disease severity, and bisphosphonate treatment were not associated with lesion volume or expansion. Gnathic FD lesion expansion is most rapid in younger children and declines as patients approach adulthood. The availability of quantitative natural history data will guide clinicians in identifying patients who are candidates for medical and surgical interventions and clinical trials for preventative therapies.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign, developmental bone disorder that causes fibrous replacement of normal skeletal tissue. This may lead to weakness, distortion, and tissue expansion. Fibrous dysplasia can occur anywhere in the body, including the craniofacial area. The clivus is a central skull bone formed by the bases of the sphenoid and occiput, respectively. The clivus is a rare, usually unrecognized, and seldom reported location for the development of fibrous dysplasia. Although fibrous dysplasia of the clivus (FDC) is usually discovered by incidental findings, it can sometimes present with clinical symptoms. In this case, we discuss a 30-year-old male who presents to the emergency room with headaches, altered mental status, and a prior presentation of location-related symptomatic epilepsy. Magnetic resonance imaging depicted a mass in the clivus, low in signal on T1 and mildly hypointense on T2 imaging. Follow-up computed tomography (CT) imaging, as recommended, revealed the classic presentation of FDC. In this paper, we discuss the significance of this condition and the importance of thorough investigation to rule out differential diagnoses that may present with similar acute symptoms as this patient.

Abstract
Bone and soft tissue lesions in the head and neck encompass not only a broad morphologic spectrum but also significant inherent clinicopathologic overlap. Epidemiology, radiology, and location - similar to the diagnostic assessment in other sites - are especially important considerations in the context of an established mesenchymal proliferation. Herein, the approach towards diagnosis is stratified by morphology (spindle, sarcomatoid, epithelioid, round cell), cellular lineage (fibroblastic, nerve sheath, rhabdomyogenic), and tumor grade (benign, low- to high-grade malignant) as the basis of further immunohistochemical or molecular investigation.

Abstract
Nasal osteoblastoma (OB) is a rare and locally aggressive osteogenic tumor that has rarely been reported, and there is a lack of effective evidence data for its diagnosis and treatment. In this study, we report a 31-year-old female patient who presented with nasal congestion and associated progressive painless swelling of the left maxillofacial region. A preoperative computed tomography (CT) examination of the paranasal sinuses was performed, and based on the imaging presentation, the surgeon was unable to differentiate between OB, osteoid osteoma (OO), fibrous dysplasia of bone (FDB) and osteoblastic fibroma (OF). After excluding contraindications to surgery, the patient underwent nasal endoscopic excision of the left nasal mass, which was found to be gravel-like and difficult to remove cleanly during the operation. The mass was brittle and bled easily, resulting in inadequate exposure of the operative field, prolonged operation time, and substantial intraoperative blood loss. This indicates that definite preoperative diagnosis (biopsy of deeper parts of the mass is recommended) and appropriate preoperative preparations (e.g., preoperative angiography and embolization, adequate blood preparation) are very important. The intraoperative frozen and postoperative pathological results clearly identified the tumor as OB. No local recurrence of the tumor was observed at the 11-month postoperative follow-up.

Abstract
McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS) is a rare mosaic (post-zygotic) genetic disorder presenting with a broad continuum clinical spectrum. MAS arises from somatic, activating mutations in the GNAS gene, which induces a dysregulated Gsα-protein signaling in several tissues and an increased production of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Overall, MAS is a rare disorder affecting less than 1/100,000 children and, for this reason, data establishing genotype-phenotype correlations remain limited. Affected individuals clinically present with a variable combination of fibrous dysplasia of bone (FD), extra-skeletal manifestations (including cafeí-au-lait spots) and precocious puberty which might also be associated to broad hyperfunctioning endocrinopathies, and also gastrointestinal and cardiological involvement. Central nervous system (CNS) and eye involvement in MAS are among the less frequently described complications and remain largely uncharacterized. These rare complications mainly include neurodevelopmental abnormalities (e.g., delayed motor development, cognitive and language impairment), CNS anomalies (e.g., Chiari malformation type I) and a wide array of ophthalmological abnormalities often associated with vision loss. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying abnormal neurological development have not been yet fully elucidated. The proposed mechanisms include a deleterious impact of chronically dysregulated Gsα-protein signaling on neurological function, or a secondary (damaging) effect of (antenatal and/or early postnatal) hypercortisolism on early pre- and post-natal CNS development. In this Review, we summarize the main neurological and ophthalmological features eventually associated with the MAS spectrum, also providing a detailed overview of the potential pathophysiological mechanisms underlying these clinical complications.

Abstract
This study aimed to provide a complex analysis of the modifications in craniofacial skeleton development that may arise following the diagnosis of pediatric benign jaw tumors. A prospective study was undertaken involving 53 patients younger than 18 years of age, who presented for treatment at the Department of Maxillo-Facial Surgery, University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cluj-Napoca, with a primary benign jaw lesion between 2012 and 2022. A total of 28 odontogenic cysts (OCs), 14 odontogenic tumors (OTs), and 11 non-OTs were identified. At follow-up, dental anomalies were identified in 26 patients, and overjet changes were found in 33 children; lateral crossbite, midline shift, and edge-to-edge bite were found in 49 cases; deep or open bite were found in 23 patients. Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) were found in 51 children, with unilateral TMJ changes identified in 7 cases and bilateral modifications found in 44 patients. Degenerative changes in the TMJ were also diagnosed in 22 pediatric patients. Although benign lesions could be associated with dental malocclusions, a direct etiological factor could be not identified. The presence of jaw tumors or their surgical treatment could, however, be linked to a change of the occlusal relationships or the onset of a TMD.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is an uncommon genetic disorder in which bone is replaced by immature bone and fibrous tissue, manifesting as slowgrowing lesions. Sporadic post-zygotic activating mutations in GNAS gene result in dysregulated GαS-protein signaling and elevation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate in affected tissues. This condition has a broad clinical spectrum, ranging from insignificant solitary lesions to severe disease. The craniofacial area is the most common site of fibrous dysplasia, and nine out of 10 patients with fibrous dysplasia affecting the craniofacial bones present before the age of 5. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment, but the technique varies according to the location and severity of the lesion and associated symptoms. The timing and indications of surgery should be carefully chosen with multidisciplinary consultations and a patient-specific approach.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This study aims to review diagnosis, potential complications, and clinical management in craniofacial fibrous dysplasia. RECENT FINDINGS Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare mosaic disorder in which normal bone and marrow are replaced with expansile fibro-osseous lesions. Disease presents along a broad spectrum and may be associated with extraskeletal features as part of McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). The craniofacial skeleton is one of the most commonly impacted areas in FD, and its functional and anatomical complexities create unique challenges for diagnosis and management. This review summarizes current approaches to diagnosis and management in FD/MAS, with emphasis on the clinical and therapeutic implications for the craniofacial skeleton.

Abstract
Abstract
Background Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) is an uncommon benign condition in which a bone is replaced by fibrous tissue. An adequate clinical characterization considering the number of affected bones and functional impairment is important to determine the most effective surgical intervention for its management. This study aims to present our institution's experience in the evaluation and management of CFD.
Methods This was a retrospective study that included patients with CFD managed at our institution. Data included demographic characteristics, afflicted bones, surgical procedures performed, and recurrence. Results are presented as mean and percentages. Recurrence-free years and association between the type of surgery and recurrence was evaluated.
Results Eighteen patients were included (11 females, 61%). The zygomatic, maxillary, and frontal bones were the most commonly affected with eight (18%) cases each. The most common procedure was bone burring, with 36 procedures. Recurrence was more prevalent after burring (58.3%) and occurred earlier than in the bone resection group (13 vs. 15 years, p > 0.05).
Conclusion Surgery continues to be the cornerstone of CFD treatment. Bone burring is effective for debulking and contouring but increases the risk for recurrence. An individualized approach should be tailored according to the anatomical location of the disease, type of CFD, behavior of the lesion, and accompanying clinical complaints.

Abstract
Craniofacial deformities (CFDs) develop following oncological resection, trauma, or congenital disorders. Trauma is one of the top five causes of death globally, with rates varying from country to country. They result in a non-healing composite tissue wound as they degenerate in soft or hard tissues. Approximately one-third of oral diseases are caused by gum disease. Due to the complexity of anatomical structures in the region and the variety of tissue-specific requirements, CFD treatments present many challenges. Many treatment methods for CFDs are available today, such as drugs, regenerative medicine (RM), surgery, and tissue engineering. Functional restoration of a tissue or an organ after trauma or other chronic diseases is the focus of this emerging field of science. The materials and methodologies used in craniofacial reconstruction have significantly improved in the last few years. A facial fracture requires bone preservation as much as possible, so tiny fragments are removed initially. It is possible to replace bone marrow stem cells with oral stem cells for CFDs due to their excellent potential for bone formation. This review article discusses regenerative approaches for different types of craniofacial diseases.

Abstract
There are numerous bone tumors in the pediatric population, with imaging playing an essential role in diagnosis and management. Our understanding of certain bone tumors has rapidly evolved over the past decade with advancements in next-generation genetic sequencing techniques. This increased level of understanding has altered the nomenclature, management approach, and prognosis of certain lesions. We provide a detailed update of bone tumors that occur in the pediatric population with emphasis on the recently released nomenclature provided in the 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Soft Tissue and Bone Tumours. We discuss other mesenchymal tumors of bone, hematopoietic neoplasms of bone, and WHO classification of undifferentiated small round cell sarcomas of bone. We have detailed osteogenic tumors and osteoclastic giant cell-rich tumors, as well as notochordal tumors, chondrogenic tumors, and vascular tumors of the bone in separate manuscripts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To analyze scientific data on the problems of disorders of bone morphogenesis in children, in particular, non-ossifying fibroma. To analyze modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of this disease in the context of the latest scientific achievements. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: The latest data of scientists from the world's leading clinics describing various forms of fibrous skeletal lesions in children of differ¬ent ages were analyzed. We examined a boy with fibrous lesions of the cortical layer of the knee joint bones and a girl with a large fibrous focus of the distal femoral metaphysis, which resulted in a closed pathological bone fracture. Surgical treatment, osteosynthesis, marginal resection of the tumor, bone grafting and histological examination were conducted. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Despite numerous studies of this disease, the etiopathogenesis of this disease has not been studied. There are no early symptoms of fibrous bone lesions in children. Diagnosis is possible only when a pathological fracture of the affected bone occurs due to extensive growth of fibrous tissue and a significant decrease in the mechanical strength of the bone. Most cases of recognition of such a disease occur accidentally when performing X-ray examinations for other reasons - bruises, sprains, arthralgias, osteochondropathy, infectious diseases, etc. It is known that boys are more mobile and require more frequent X-ray examinations for limb injuries than girls, so the likelihood of accidental detection of such changes increases significantly. Thus, long-term observations of children with fibrous bone lesions have shown that after 40 years, patients rarely developed malignant tumors - osteogenic sarcoma, fibrosarcoma, malignant fibroma of tubular bones, pelvic bones. There are no early symptoms of fibrous bone lesions in children. Recognition of such a disease occurs by chance when X-ray examinations are performed for other reasons.

Comparison of the histopathological characteristics of diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis of the mandible, chronic suppurative osteomyelitis, and craniofacial fibrous dysplasia. J Oral Pathol Med 2023; 52:91-98. [PMID: 36370060 DOI: 10.1111/jop.13384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2022] [Revised: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are relatively few reports on the histopathological characteristics of diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis of the mandible (DSOM), which is difficult to distinguish from chronic suppurative osteomyelitis (CSO) and craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD). This study aimed to summarize and compare the histopathological characteristics of DSOM, CFD, and CSO. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections of patients with DSOM, CSO, and CFD at the Peking University Hospital of Stomatology from 2015 to 2020 were retrieved. The histopathological characteristics were summarized, including new bone formation, inflammatory cell infiltration, bone trabecular morphology, osteoclasts, sequestrum, bacterial mass, and calcified spherules, similar to cementicles. The histopathological characteristics of DSOM, CSO, and CFD were compared, and the results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS In total, 50, 13, and 10 patients with DSOM, CSO, and CFD were included in this study, respectively. In terms of new bone formation, both DSOM and CSO showed reactive bone formation (p = 1), whereas CFD mainly showed fiber osteogenesis (p < 0.001). The inflammatory cells of DSOM were mainly lymphocytes and plasma cells, whereas those of CSO were mainly lymphocytes and neutrophils (p < 0.001), and there was usually no inflammatory cell infiltration in the CFD specimens (p < 0.001). DSOM, CSO, and CFD showed irregular bone trabeculae (p = 0.045, p = 0.703) and active osteoclasts (p1 = 0.189, p2 = 0.256). DSOM showed a small amount of bacterial mass but no sequestrum; neither of which was found in CFD (p = 1, p = 1), but it was common in CSO (p = 0.011 and p = 0.025). DSOM and CSO showed smooth and regular basophilic lines (p = 0.308), whereas CFD showed a rough and irregular basophilic line (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The histopathological characteristics of the three diseases were partly similar, but there were evident differences. The main differences are the type of new bone formation, types and distribution of inflammatory cells, and presence of sequestrum and bacterial masses. These differences will help clinicians diagnose DSOM.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare benign disease that replaces a normal bone with abnormal fibrous and weak osseous tissue. It is usually detected in childhood and rarely occurs in old age. Although the disease is known to be caused by a genetic mutation, only a single case of FD secondary to surgery is reported in the literature. We report a case of monostotic FD of the maxillary sinus in a 70-year-old Asian woman who presented with incidental calcific lesion in the maxillary sinus on a brain computed tomography scan. At 32 months prior to presentation, the patient had undergone an endoscopic sinus surgery for a fungal ball of the same sinus. The lesion was removed by endoscopic surgery, and the histopathological evidence was consistent with FD. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case of a postsurgical craniofacial FD, and a rare case that occurred in old age.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign condition, which is characterized by the replacement of normal bone with fibrous tissue and the deposition of woven bone in an irregular manner. Surgical resection, careful corrective osteotomies as debulking, and recontouring procedures are frequently performed, but can be complicated by postoperative regrowth of the lesion. The main aim of this study was to introduce a computer-guided technique for a predetermined technique of bone contouring of craniofacial FD involving the facial bones. METHODS This case report was conducted on an 18-year-old girl complaining of unilateral craniofacial dysplasia. Upon clinical examination and radiographic examination, a customized computer-generated bone contouring guide was designed using virtual surgical software for accurate contouring of excess bone in the cranial vault and frontal bone. This guide was virtually designed after importing the multislice computerized tomography scans into the virtual surgical planning software. It was generated based on the mirroring option of the unaffected normal side along the median sagittal plane. In the surgery, the guide was seated in place and 5 mm implant drills were inserted through the guide depth holes. Bone removal was made using surgical burs connecting the guiding depth holes. RESULTS At the end of the follow-up, the patient showed acceptance of her external appearance with no signs of infection or dehiscence. CONCLUSION This patient-specific cutting guide shows a promising solution for preplanned bone removal in cases with unilateral craniofacial FD.

Abstract
The clinical and radiographic dilemma of fibrous dysplasia versus osteomyelitis is highlighted in this case of a 4-year-old girl with a bony hard swelling in mandibular body and ramus. Rather than relying on histopathological appearance alone, dental professionals should be familiar with the radiographic differences between the two conditions.

Abstract
Introduction and importance McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is typically described by the asociation of cutaneous (coffee-at-milk spots), endocrine (endocrine hyperfunction most often precocious puberty), and fibrous dysplasia (FD). In 90% of cases, AD manifests itself as a disorder of the craniofacial skeleton, affecting the maxilla, mandible, and even the temporal bone. Case presentation We report the case of a 14-year-old girl who presented with complaints of left otalgia with the notion of recurrent otitis evolving for one year, she presents as antecedent an early puberty. At the examination, we found café-au-lait macules, and a slight left exophthalmos without visual acuity decrease. Otoscopic examination showed a narrowing of the external auditory canal (EAC). An audiogram showed conductive hearing loss in the left ear; the air-bone gap was 35 dB. A computed tomography (CT) scan was performed, showing a large "ground glass" appearance of the left temporal region. Given the presence of the cafe-au-lait spot, fibrous dysplasia of the temporal bone, and a history of early puberty, the diagnosis of McCune-Albright syndrome was made. clinical Discussion Management of SMA is based on the needs of the individual patient and should be performed by a multidisciplinary team. Management of endocrinopathies is usually medical, with precocious puberty in girls most often treated with aromatase inhibitors. The objectives of the management of craniofacial DF are to correct the functional and aesthetic damage. Conclusion McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare disease. The involvement of the craniofacial region by FD during SAM is a complicated entity, in its effects and in its management McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare disease. The involvement of the craniofacial region by FD during SAM is a complicated entity, in its effects and in its management. the interest of a meticulous clinical examination to guide the diagnosis its recourse to biopsy or genetic study. the mechanisms of hearing loss have not been well established, in our paper we will confirm the theory of bone overgrowth around the ossicles and the otic capsule, tested in mice.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) and hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome (HPT-JT) are well-characterized benign bone fibro-osseous lesions. The intracellular mechanism leading to excessive deposition of fibrous tissue and alteration of differentiation processes leading to osteomalacia have not yet been fully clarified. Tissue Microarray (TMA)-based immunohistochemical expression of β-catenin, CK-AE1/AE3, Ki-67, cadherins and P-Runx2 were analyzed in archival samples from nine patients affected by FD and HPT-JT and in seven controls, with the aim of elucidating the contribution of these molecules (β-catenin, cadherins and P-Runx2) in the osteoblast differentiation pathway. β-catenin was strongly upregulated in FD, showing a hyper-cellulated pattern, while it was faintly expressed in bone tumors associated with HPT-JT. Furthermore, the loss of expression of OB-cadherin in osteoblast lineage in FD was accompanied by N-cadherin and P-cadherin upregulation (p < 0.05), while E-cadherin showed a minor role in these pathological processes. P-Runx2 showed over-expression in six out of eight cases of FD and stained moderately positive in the rimming lining osteoblasts in HPT-JT syndrome. β-catenin plays a central role in fibrous tissue proliferation and accompanies the lack of differentiation of osteoblast precursors in mature osteoblasts in FD. The study showed that the combined evaluation of the histological characteristics and the histochemical and immunohistochemical profile of key molecules involved in osteoblast differentiation are useful in the diagnosis, classification and therapeutic management of fibrous-osseous lesions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the clinicopathologic features and prognosis of the different types of fibrous dysplasia (FD) of cranio-maxillofacial region, so as to provide a new reference for clinicians to treat these patients and make prognostic judgement. METHODS Clinical records, radiographic data and pathological information of 105 patients diagnosed with FD or McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) at the Department of Oral Pathology, Peking University Hospital of Stomatology from January 2013 to December 2020 were collected. The patients were divided into 4 groups: monostotic FDs, polyostotic FDs, MAS and a specific type called craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) limited in the craniofacial region. The clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and follow-up data of each type were analyzed. RESULTS Of all the 105 patients, 46 were males and 59 were females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1 ∶1.3. The onset age ranged from 0 to 56 years and the median age was 12 years. On the basis of different involvement conditions, 4 types were divided. The most common type was monostotic FDs (43 cases, 40.95%), including maxilla (29 cases), mandibular (12 cases) and zygoma (2 cases). 32 cases (30.48%) were diagnosed with polyostotic FDs, 7 cases (6.67%) were MAS, and 23 cases (21.90%) were CFDs confirmed by computed tomography (CT) analysis. CFD was clearly distinct from other types of FD, such as the patient gender and the serum alkaline phosphatase level in peripheral blood before operative surgery. The pathologic findings of various types FD were quite similar, whilst the predominant fibrous tissue hyperplasia could be observed in polyostotic FDs and MAS types. CONCLUSION The clinicopathologic features of FD in the cranio-maxillofacial region are different from the FD lesions in other parts of the body. The clinicopathological features of CFD are significantly different from those of monostotic and polyostotic FDs in the cranio-maxillofacial region. Therefore, the clinicians should pay attention to distinguish CFD in clinic, imaging and pathology aspects, so as to further clarify its features in clinic management and prognosis.

Abstract
We present a rare clinical report of a 45-year-old man affected by Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) with a unilateral mass of the left frontal bone, diagnosed as a possible recurrence of fibrous dysplasia. This patient was evaluated with computed tomography (CT scan) and was treated with resection of the mass and reconstruction with splitting a calvarian bone graft. The pathological evidence was suggestive for a bone cavernous haemangioma. No previously described cases of bone dysplasia associated with this systemic syndrome were reported so far. Patient's disease was under stringent control at the time of hospitalization, and the outcome has been successful, even though a mild increase of inflammatory indexes was reported after surgery. This laboratory evidence was transient and not related to further clinical complications. Piezoelectric surgery allowed us to surgically treat a hemangioma. Hyperostosis found in the case report was due to hemangioma. Hyperostotic cases can be treated with piezosurgery. Case report with SLE

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a developmental hamartomatous bone disease characterized by a blend of fibrous and osseous entities. Though rarely malignant, the tumor can vary from being small and asymptomatic, to a fairly large sized lesion, progressing gradually, compromising occlusion and facial esthetics. Treatment approach depends on the stage of skeletal maturity. It primarily involves surgical management for stabilizing the disease process. Post-surgical comprehensive dental treatment is necessary for restoring form and function of the jaws and teeth. This article describes comprehensive orthodontic management of severe malocclusion in a surgically operated case of FD maxilla.
CASE SUMMARY A 19-year female presented with a chief complaint of excessive gingival display when smiling. Dental history included swelling of gums around the upper right front teeth, diagnosed at the age of 15 as FD of the right anterior maxillary segment and treated with surgical recontouring of the dysplastic bone. The clinical and radiological examinations showed adequate post-surgical healing. The surgically treated dysplastic area presented with right canting of the maxillary anterior occlusal plane. The maxillary teeth were torqued palatally, with the root of the right maxillary canine exposed clinically. We discuss sequential management of the associated malocclusion with comprehensive fixed orthodontics, along with special precautions taken to prevent reactivation of the quiescent and healed lesion.
CONCLUSION The adequate healing of fibro-dysplastic bone post-surgery must be allowed before initiating orthodontic tooth movement in the dysplastic bone. Periodic follow-ups are needed to monitor stability of occlusion and any relapse of the lesion.

[PMID: 34777239 PMCID: PMC8586495 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2021.672394] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background McCune-Albright syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by fibrous dysplasia, café au lait skin spots, and hyperfunctioning endocrinopathies. The coexistence of precocious puberty and growth hormone excess in McCune-Albright syndrome is rare. Both conditions can manifest as accelerated growth, and treatments can be more challenging for such patients. This study aimed to describe the clinical manifestations of combined GH excess and PP in the context of McCune-Albright syndrome and analyze the clinical features and treatments of these patients. Method Clinical data from 60 McCune-Albright syndrome patients from Peking Union Medical College Hospital were obtained. The demographic characteristics, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor-1, prolactin, alkaline phosphatase, and sex hormone levels; growth velocity; and bone age data were obtained. The growth velocity Z-score, bone age over chronological age ratio, and predicted adult height Z-score were calculated before and after treatment. Published studies and case reports were systemically searched, and data on demographic, clinical, and biochemical characteristics and treatment outcomes were obtained. Results We reviewed seven patients among 60 McCune-Albright syndrome patients at Peking Union Medical College Hospital (5 female) and 39 patients (25 female) from the published literature. Six of the seven patients from Peking Union Medical College Hospital and half of the patients from the published studies were pediatric patients. These patients had increased growth velocity Z-scores and bone age over chronological age ratios. After good control of both conditions, the growth velocity Z-score and bone age over chronological age ratio decreased significantly, and the predicted adult height Z-score increased. The final heights and predicted adult height Z-scores were not impaired in patients with gigantism. All the patients had craniofacial fibrous dysplasia associated with optic and otologic complications. Conclusion McCune-Albright syndrome with growth hormone excess and precocious puberty is more common in girls. Patients have accelerated linear growth and advanced skeletal age, and early and good control of both conditions leads to a reduced growth velocity and stabilized bone age. The predicted adult and final heights are not negatively affected when growth hormone excess is diagnosed in pediatric patients.

Abstract
Monostotic fibrous dysplasia is a benign asymptomatic lesion that affects only one bone, which is replaced by amorphous connective tissue. Clinically there is an increase in the volume of the affected area, which is observed by imaging as a radiopaque area with diffuse non-corticalized limits capable of expanding to neighboring structures, and it is histologically evidenced as "resembling Chinese characters". The lesion is seen as a radiopaque image with diffuse borders in conventional or digital radiography, while cone beam computed tomography identifies the exact location and extension of an isodense, mixed or hyperdense image of non-corticalized edges. Magnetic resonance imaging is also used when the lesion involves soft tissues or nerves, and bone scintigraphy is performed in order to systemically observe bone quality. The objective of this article was to describe the new technologies in oral radiology for the diagnosis of monostotic fibrous dysplasia and the importance of the current imaging methods in achieving an adequate diagnosis. These techniques range from conventional radiography to bone scans, which provide images of higher quality, clarity and better precision with less invasive techniques to the patient. This review of the literature helps to expand the knowledge of dental professionals in relation to the clinical and imaging characteristics of monostotic fibrous dysplasia.

Abstract
The precocious puberty is an urgent problem of pediatric endocrinology characterized by clinical and pathogenetic heterogeneity. The appearance of secondary sex characteristics before the age of 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys requires timely diagnosis and the appointment of pathogenetically justified treatment in order to achieve the target indicators of final growth and prevent social deprivation. The developed clinical guidelines are the main working tool of the practitioner. They briefly and structurally present the main information about the epidemiology and modern classification of рrecocious puberty, methods of its diagnosis and treatment based on the principles of evidence-based medicine.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is a rare bony disorder with recurrent character distinguished by abnormal fibro-osseous tissue. One or more bones may be involved in this lesion; however, the maxilla is the most commonly affected bone in the maxillofacial region. Here, we present an interesting case of a surgically treated 12-year-old adult female patient with a diagnosis of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) in the maxillary bone with an invasive expansion to the orbital bone who was referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial, Mashhad Dental School, Mashhad, Iran, in Apr 2021. The patient was treated under general anesthesia by the surgical recontouring and bone shaving of the tumor. Several factors should be considered in choosing the best treatment such as pathological features of the lesion, patient's age, and risk of recurrence. However, surgical treatment, in this case, was beneficial to help the patient resuming a normal life. There is no published report describing bone recontouring and shaving management in an invasive case of craniomaxillofacial FD before the age of skeletal maturity due to the psychological effect of the deformity.

Abstract
Denosumab has been advocated as a potential treatment for the rare skeletal disorder fibrous dysplasia (FD); however, there is limited data to support safety and efficacy, particularly after drug discontinuation. We report a case of successful treatment of aggressive craniofacial FD with denosumab, highlighting novel insights into the duration of efficacy, surrogate treatment markers, and discontinuation effects. A 13-year-old girl presented with persistent pain and expansion of a maxillary FD lesion, which was not responsive to repeated surgical procedures or bisphosphonates. Pre-treatment biopsy showed high RANKL expression and localization with proliferation markers. Denosumab therapy was associated with improved pain, decreased bone turnover markers, and increased lesion density on computed tomography scan. During 3.5 years of treatment, the patient developed increased non-lesional bone density, and after denosumab discontinuation, she developed hypercalcemia managed with bisphosphonates. Pain relief and lesion stability continued for 2 years following treatment, and symptom recurrence coincided with increased bone turnover markers and decreased lesion density back to pre-treatment levels. This case highlights the importance of considering the duration of efficacy when treating patients with FD and other nonresectable skeletal neoplasms that require long-term management.

Abstract
Study models are frequently used in orthodontics and are a key part of both initial assessment and treatment planning. They are an important part of comprehensive orthodontic records; furthermore, study models are an essential diagnostic aid that can be studied in detail without the patient being present. We present a case of a 14-year-old boy with an abnormal palatal swelling detected by his specialist orthodontist after review of study models taken at the initial appointment. At the assessment alone, the significance of the abnormality was not recognised and without the help of study models, diagnosis and treatment of his fibrous dysplasia may have been significantly delayed.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental disorder of the bone that originates from a genetic defect disturbing the osteogenesis leading to the replacement of normal bone with the excess proliferation of fibrous tissue. It can be associated with hyperpigmentation of the skin and endocrine disorders. Fibrous dysplasia can manifest in a monostotic form affecting one bone or in a polyostotic form involving several bones. Approximately 30% of monostotic forms are observed in the maxilla and the mandible. It frequently appears in the posterior region and is usually unilateral. It is found in teenagers and could become static after adulthood. Patients can present with swelling, facial asymmetry, pain, or numbness on the affected side. Treatment modalities vary between conservative surgical treatment, radical surgical approach, and medical treatment based on bisphosphonates. Here, we present a case of a monostotic form of fibrous dysplasia affecting the posterior left region of the mandible in a 9-year-old male complaining of gradually increased swelling on the left mandibular side of one-year duration. The diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia is established based on clinical, radiographical, and histopathological features. Conservative surgery is implemented with surgical shaving and reencountering of the bone excess to reduce the facial asymmetry. Recurrence is reported 10 years later and is also treated with a localized osteoplasty and remodeling of the bone contours. Five years later, the lesion remains stable. In conclusion, a conservative approach should be adopted as the first line of treatment for young patients suffering from monostotic fibrous dysplasia.

Abstract
Background Stigma, both enacted and internalized, is part of the illness experience of many chronic conditions / diseases and has been found to increase psychological distress, lower self-esteem, and impact social engagement lowering quality of life (QOL). Stigma among pediatric patients is of particular concern due to its potential impact on identity formation. Using patient data from the online FD/MAS Alliance Patient Registry (FDMASAPR), this study seeks to 1) determine levels of enacted and self-stigma in a pediatric population of fibrous dysplasia (FD) / McCune Albright syndrome (MAS) patients and 2) to explore the relationship between stigma and anxiety and depression. Methods This is a cross sectional analysis of deidentified self-report data from 18 pediatric patients. Key analytic variables include the Neuro-QOL stigma short form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), diagnostic category and craniofacial involvement, and select demographics. Sample means and score distributions are examined. Bivariate relationships between stigma, anxiety and depression and patient’s personal and medical characteristics are established through analysis of variance and correlation. Results Composite stigma levels for FD/MAS pediatric patients were comparable to those of children with multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and muscular dystrophy. Self-stigma was more frequently reported than enacted/felt stigma, but few patients indicated complete freedom from either type of stigma. Diagnosis was significantly related to self-stigma. Significant bivariate relationships were found between depression and enacted/felt and self-stigma and between anxiety and self-stigma. Conclusions This study establishes the illness experience of pediatric patients with FD / MAS is impacted by stigma and suggests they should be regularly screened for stigma and psychological distress. It supports the integration of clinical psychologists/ therapists in regular patient care, referral of families to advocacy organizations, and indicates that rare disease patient registries can be a useful tool in efforts to improve the QOL of patients.

Abstract
Due to their low incidence and thus resulting limited diagnostic criteria as well as therapeutic options, rare diseases of the nose, the paranasal sinuses, and the anterior skull base are a significant challenge. The value as of which a disease has to be considered as rare amounts to a maximum of 5 patients per 10 000 people. Within these diseases, however, there are extreme differences. Some rare or orphan diseases like for example the inverted papilloma belong to regularly diagnosed and treated diseases of larger departments of oto-rhino-laryngology whereas other rare diseases and malformations have only been described in less than 100 case reports worldwide. This fact emphasizes the necessity of bundling the available experience of diagnostics and therapy. The present article gives an overview about rare diseases of the nose, the paranasal sinuses, and the anterior skull base from the field of diseases/syndromes of the olfactory system, malformations of the nose and paranasal sinuses, ventilation and functional disorders as well as benign and malignant tumors. The classification and data on diagnostic and therapeutic options were established based on the current literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review summarizes current understanding of the role of denosumab, an inhibitor of receptor activator of nuclear kappa-B ligand (RANKL), in the management of 3 skeletal neoplasms: giant cell tumors, aneurysmal bone cysts, and fibrous dysplasia. RECENT FINDINGS A growing body of literature supports denosumab use in giant cell tumors, a neoplasm in which RANKL plays a clear pathogenic role. Comparatively less data is available in aneurysmal bone cysts and fibrous dysplasia; however, the pathogenic similarity of these disorders to giant cell tumors, as well as encouraging preliminary data, suggests denosumab may be useful. Denosumab's inhibitory effects on bone turnover are fully reversible after drug discontinuation. This raises important unanswered questions for clinical management, including potential risks of tumor recurrence and bone turnover rebound. Denosumab is a promising potential treatment for skeletal neoplasms. However, its clinical use is impacted by ongoing safety concerns related to postdiscontinuation rebound, particularly in children. There is a critical need to understand denosumab treatment and discontinuation effects on tumor recurrence and to develop strategies for long-term treatment in patients who cannot be managed surgically.

Abstract
PURPOSE Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) is a subtype of fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) characterized by FD lesions in one or more of the skull bones. The orbit is often involved, with facial pain, facial deformity, and increased risk of compressive optic neuropathy as associated clinical manifestations possibly leading to altered illness perceptions and impairments in quality of life(QoL). The aim of this study was to evaluate illness perceptions and QoL in patients with CFD among our FD/MAS cohort. METHODS One hundred ninety-one patients were included. Illness perceptions and QoL were assessed by using validated questionnaires, that is, the Illness Perceptions Questionnaire-Revised and the Short-Form 36. Patients were first grouped as CFD versus non-CFD, a second selection was based on the presence of "Isolated CFD" versus "CFD+PFD/MAS." Non-CFD patients were grouped as monostotic fibrous dysplasia "MFD" versus polyostotic "PFD/MAS." RESULTS Patients with isolated CFD attributed less symptoms to their disease compared with patients with CFD+PFD/MAS (p < 0.05). Furthermore, patients with isolated CFD reported better QoL on all domains (except role emotional and mental health) compared with patients with CFD+PFD/MAS (p < 0.05). Patients with isolated CFD also reported better QoL compared with non-CFD groups (on 3 out of 8 subscales) (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patients with isolated CFD attribute less symptoms to their disease and report better QoL compared with patients with CFD with extracranial involvement or FD without cranial involvement. These findings indicate that craniofacial involvement alone is not sufficient to cause negative illness perceptions and impairments in QoL. Therefore, it can be postulated that isolated CFD should be considered a unique patient subtype within the spectrum of FD/MAS patients.

Multiscale molecular profiling of pathological bone resolves sexually dimorphic control of extracellular matrix composition. Dis Model Mech 2021; 14:dmm048116. [PMID: 33563616 PMCID: PMC7988766 DOI: 10.1242/dmm.048116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2020] [Accepted: 01/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Collagen assembly during development is essential for successful matrix mineralisation, which determines bone quality and mechanocompetence. However, the biochemical and structural perturbations that drive pathological skeletal collagen configuration remain unclear. Deletion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF; also known as VEGFA) in bone-forming osteoblasts (OBs) induces sex-specific alterations in extracellular matrix (ECM) conformation and mineralisation coupled to vascular changes, which are augmented in males. Whether this phenotypic dimorphism arises as a result of the divergent control of ECM composition and its subsequent arrangement is unknown and is the focus of this study. Herein, we used murine osteocalcin-specific Vegf knockout (OcnVEGFKO) and performed ex vivo multiscale analysis at the tibiofibular junction of both sexes. Label-free and non-destructive polarisation-resolved second-harmonic generation (p-SHG) microscopy revealed a reduction in collagen fibre number in males following the loss of VEGF, complemented by observable defects in matrix organisation by backscattered electron scanning electron microscopy. This was accompanied by localised divergence in collagen orientation, determined by p-SHG anisotropy measurements, as a result of OcnVEGFKO. Raman spectroscopy confirmed that the effect on collagen was linked to molecular dimorphic VEGF effects on collagen-specific proline and hydroxyproline, and collagen intra-strand stability, in addition to matrix carbonation and mineralisation. Vegf deletion in male and female murine OB cultures in vitro further highlighted divergence in genes regulating local ECM structure, including Adamts2, Spp1, Mmp9 and Lama1. Our results demonstrate the utility of macromolecular imaging and spectroscopic modalities for the detection of collagen arrangement and ECM composition in pathological bone. Linking the sex-specific genetic regulators to matrix signatures could be important for treatment of dimorphic bone disorders that clinically manifest in pathological nano- and macro-level disorganisation. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

[PMID: 32979536 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2020.115661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 09/11/2020] [Accepted: 09/20/2020] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare disorder of expansile fibro-osseous lesions that may be associated with extraskeletal features as part of McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). Optic disc edema is a potentially serious ophthalmologic finding that has been rarely reported in patients with FD/MAS. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and potential clinical associations of optic disc edema in a large cohort. METHODS Clinical records were reviewed from subjects in an ongoing FD/MAS natural history study. Computed Tomography scans were evaluated for the presence of structural craniofacial abnormalities associated with optic disc edema, including Chiari I malformation and space-occupying lesions. Craniomorphometric analyses were performed to determine optic canal diameter and intracranial volume. Statistical analyses were performed to compare clinical and radiographic features between subjects with and without optic disc edema. RESULTS Optic disc edema was diagnosed in 7/187 subjects, for a prevalence of 3.7%. All subjects with optic disc edema were diagnosed before age 18 years and had mild, non-progressive disease. Radiographic structural abnormalities, including Chiari I malformation, aneurysmal bone cysts, and arachnoid cysts, were associated with higher odds of optic disc edema (odds ratio [OR] 24.3; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.2 to 121.4; p < 0.01) (OR 18.0; 95% CI, 3.4 to 108.2; p < 0.01). Treatment with leuprolide, a gonadotropin releasing hormone analog, was also associated with optic disc edema (OR 26.0; 95% CI 3.3 to 177.5; p < 0.05). There was no significant association of optic disc edema with other MAS endocrinopathies, medications, optic canal diameter, or intracranial volume. CONCLUSION Optic disc edema is an uncommon but potentially serious complication of craniofacial FD, which may occur more frequently in pediatric patients and those with structural craniofacial abnormalities. The potential association of leuprolide therapy with optic disc edema in this population warrants further study.
