Deposition, mineralization, and resorption of FD bone compared with unaffected bone from FD patients was investigated in iliac crest biopsy specimens from 13 patients. Compared with unaffected bone, lesional FD bone seemed to be very sensitive to the effects of PTH and renal phosphate wasting, which respectively bring about hyperparathyroid or osteomalacic changes in the lesional bone.
