Abstract

 

Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental disorder of remodelling in the primitive bone resulting in replacement of osteoid by fibrous tissue. It is more commonly seen in long bones. Pathological fracture and deformities are common in proximal femur and tibia. Treatment includes curettage and cortical bone grafting with or without internal fixation. In the present case, thorough curettage and cortical bone grafting with minimal internal fixation was done with good results.
