Abstract

Introduction: Fibrous dysplasia is considered a rare anomaly of skeletal development, caused by a genetic mutation, in which normal bone, due to an increased proliferation of fibrous tissue, is replaced by irregular bone trabeculae.
Objective: To present a case of anteriorly located mandibular monostotic fibrous dysplasia in a young medical student.
Clinical Case: 23-year-old patient, white skin, urban origin and health history. He came to the consultation due to a progressive increase in volume, accompanied by dental crowding and sensitivity alterations in the lower anterior teeth. The physical examination and complementary imaging revealed a presumptive diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia. The lesion was surgically approached to take a sample for histopathological study, which confirmed the diagnosis of mandibular monostotic fibrous dysplasia.
Conclusions: Mandibular monostotic fibrous dysplasia is a rare, recurrent clinical entity with high postoperative morbidity; it´s treatment varies depending on the progression of the disease.
