Fibrous Dysplasia in a Patient With Tuberous SclerosisSt Christopher's Hospital for Children and the Departments of Pediatrics, Department of Neurology

St Christopher's Hospital for Children and the Departments of Pediatrics, Department of Neurology Though osseous abnormalities are associated with tuberous sclerosis, involvement of the skull base and orbit has not been reported. We describe a patient with superior displacement of the orbit and proptosis that were due to sphenoid hyperplasia and sclerosis characteristic of fibrous dysplasia. A pelvic osteosclerotic lesion suggested polyostotic involvement. The bony abnormalities implied neither concurrent neurofibromatosis nor McCune-Albright syndrome in this patient with tuberous sclerosis. (J Child Neurol 1988;3:131-134).
