Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma

چکیده
Within the confusing ray of fibro-osseous lesions, the so called juvenile ossifying Fibroma (JAOF) is perhaps the most enigmatic. Pathologists considering such a diagnosis are faced with a plethora of subjective and arbitrary criteria and will find little consolidation in the literature. Occupying a subset within the spectrum of ossifying Fibroma. JAOF is considered by many to be a unique lesion because of its reported tendency to occur in children and adolescents, it's more complex histological features, and its purported tendency for locally aggressive growth. Because of this lesion's aggressive nature and high recurrence rate, early detection and complete surgical excision are essential. Reported here is a case of a massive juvenile ossifying fibroma of the maxilla in a 12year-old male child.

Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a rare, benign, locally aggressive entity of the extragnathic craniofacial bones with a high tendency towards recurrence. Two distinctive microscopic patterns of juvenile ossifying fibroma have been described: a trabecular juvenile ossifying fibroma (TrJOF) and a psammomatoid juvenile ossifying fibroma (PJOF). Psammomatoid variant is predominantly a craniofac...

Juvenile ossifying fibroma is an uncommon benign fibro-osseous lesion occurring in the craniofacial skeleton with a high recurrence rate. It has two distinct histopathologic variants: one trabecular and the other which are exclusive to each other. This case reveals a rare and unique combination of both the patterns in the same lesion.

Cemeto-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a benign fibro-osseous lesion of the mandible and maxilla. The World Health Organization (WHO) introduced the term “cementoossifying fibroma” by combining two entities, cementifying fibroma and ossifying fibroma in 1992. However in 2005 the entity was included under ossifying fibroma group. The tumor usually affects the young adults. Rarely, this tumor arises i...

A case of unusual bone regeneration after resection of a juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is presented. Secondary mandibular reconstruction with autogenous grafts was delayed due to the rapid bone formation. To the best of our knowledge there are no reports of this unusual response following JOF resection.
