Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia is a bone condition in which normal bone tissue is replaced by abnormal fibrous tissue in several bones of the body, which can weaken or deform them.
Frequent symptoms: It can cause pain in the affected bones, deformities, a greater risk of fractures, and, in some cases, growth abnormalities.
Common causes: It is related to a genetic change that occurs during development and is not strictly hereditary.
Which specialist treats it? Its evaluation is usually coordinated between the orthopedist and the geneticist. In the case of persistent bone pain or deformities, the most sensible course is to seek a professional evaluation to clarify the cause.
