Abstract：Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia(CFD)occurs in the craniofacial bones.CFD is characterized by painless and progressive single or multiple non-inflammatory masses on the head and face.The involvement of different craniofacial tissues and organs may result in facial deformities,impaired vision,sinus infections,hearing impairment,and displaced missing teeth,which seriously affect the patient's appearance,quality of life,and physical and mental health.Patients with specific types of CFD may also have extra-skeletal manifestations such as skin and/or endocrine system disorders.Due to the complex disease spectrum and diverse clinical phenotypes of CFD,the treatment strategy for CFD is still in the exploratory stage.We have discussed how to balance conservative and surgical treatment,develop individual-ized surgical plans at the appropriate time of surgery,and establish multidisciplinary teams for this disease.
