Abstract

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign, progressive fibro-osseus disease. Typically, there are three variants monostotic, polyostotic and McCune Albright syndrome. Monostotic variant being the commonest of all, affects mainly the craniofacial bones and ribs. Fibrous dysplasia affecting the temporal bone may be challenging at times. Here, we present our case series of three temporal bone fibrous dysplasias along with the literature review.
