Odontogenic fibroma (OF) is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm that is most commonly found in the mandibular/premolar region of female patients in the second to fourth decades of life. Well-defined radiolucent lesions that may induce root resorption are normally observed. Rare variants of OF have been described in the prior literature, including references to: 1) giant cell lesions, 2) amyloid-...
متن کاملCentral Odontogenic Fibroma
In 1991, Handlers and colleagues described the Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) as a distinct entity which is a rare benign odontogenic tumour and up to the present, only 78 cases of it have been published. COF usually occurs in an adult patient and has a predilection for the anterior region of the jaws. A 2.8:1 female to mail ratio is typically noted. This article presents a case of COF in a ...

متن کاملCentral Odontogenic Fibroma of Maxilla: A Rare Case
Central odontogenic fi broma (COF) is a rare benign odontogenic tumor characterized by variable amounts of inactive-looking odontogenic epithelium embedded in a mature fi brous stroma corresponding to 0-5.5% of all odontogenic tumors. COF may be seen at any age, but it is diagnosed most frequently in patients between the second and fourth decades of life. The lesion is asymptomatic except the s...
متن کاملPeripheral Odontogenic Fibroma: A Rare Tumor mimicking a Gingival Reactive Lesion
Gingival growths are one of the most frequently encountered lesions in the oral cavity. A plethora of lesions can be seen having similar clinical presentation, making diagnosis a dilemma. Peripheral odontogenic tumors are rare neoplasms to occur on gingiva, the most common among them being the peripheral odontogenic fibroma (POdF). The POdF is a benign, slow-growing, exophytic lesion. Although ...
