Summary:To discuss treatments of spinal polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) and their clinical outcomes. A group of spinal PFD patients treated in orthopaedic department of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2005 to December 2010 was retrospectively reviewed. There were 3 males and 1 female. The age was 53, 17, 32, 38 years, respectively. Two cases underwent preoperative CT-guided biopsy and the other two had previous pathologic results. All the patients complained localized pain and VAS (visual analogue scale) ranged from 3 to 5. All the cases had pathologic fractures and 3 cases had neurological impairment. The surgical procedures for each patient were as follows: lesion resection combined with cervicothoracic fixation and fusion; reduction combined with occipitocervical fixation and fusion; vertebroplasty (VP); VP combined with posterior decompression and fixation. Fibrous dysplasia in each patient was confirmed by postoperative pathological examination. The operation time was 420, 150, 120, 300 minutes
