Abstract

Abstract : Chronic Fibrosing Osteomyletis (CFO) is a commonly found condition which is often undiagnosed because of its co-morbidities with other systemic conditions. Clinicians should consider CFO in their differential diagnosis when confronted with complex head, neck and facial pain patients who present with multi-symptom/systems overlay. A multi-disciplinary approach is often required for proper patient diagnosis and treatment.
