Abstract
Camurati-Engelmann disease (CED), or progressive diaphyseal dysplasia, is an uncommon bone dysplasia that is inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern. The disease mainly affects the diaphyses of the long bones but can induce sclerotic changes to the facial skeleton and skull base. The diagnosis of CED is based on clinical and radiologic features. This article presents the clinical and radiologic characteristics of the jaws as visualized on cone-beam computed tomograms of a 46-year-old woman diagnosed with CED.
