Treatment Protocol and Long-Term Outcomes in Craniofacial Fibrous Dysplasia (CFD)

December 4, 2023 updated by: Pangyunchou, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Long-term Follow-up and Treatment Protocol for Craniofacial Fibrous Dysplasia From 40-year Data at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital: A Retrospective Case Series

Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (CFD) is a nonneoplastic disease characterized by fibro-osseous lesions in the affected bones. Treatment is mainly surgical and is stratified based on four different anatomical zones. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes and refine the algorithm for CFD.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

According to Chen et. al for the appropriate surgical management of FD the craniofacial skeleton can be divided into four zones according to the consideration of facial cosmesis, vital anatomical region and function preserving. The aim of the study was to evaluate the outcome of nearly 40 years long-term follow up cohort group and refine the algorithm of surgical intervention of FD under 4 zones classification.

Study Population

Patient with craniofacial fibrous dysplasia, and received craniofacial surgery

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Received CFD surgical intervention between 1972 and 2019
  • Personal interviews: between late 2019 and 2020, covering a postoperative period of over 20 years
  • All the surgery were performed by a senior surgeon (Yu-Ray Chen) at Chang Gung Craniofacial Center

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who underwent surgical treatment at other institutions during the follow-up period or those who did not return to the craniofacial outpatient department for follow-up and receive computed tomography scans between 2019 and 2020 will be excluded.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Craniofacial fibrous dysplasia
Fibro-osseous lesions within the affected bones based on image, and surgical intervention based on 4 different anatomical zones.

Zone 1 lesions: radical excision and immediate reconstruction with bone grafts for fibrous dysplasia lesions.

Zone 2 lesions: trimming & recontouring. Zone 3 lesions: observation or conservative recontouring; optic nerve decompression performed when continuous deterioration of vision, and external auditory canal surgery performed when cholesteatoma/near total ear canal stenosis.

Zone 4: observation or conservative recontouring; orthognathic surgery performed when malocclusion or midface retrusion noted.
