A Gigantic Desmoplastic Fibroma Resembling A Malignant Neoplasm: An Intriguing Case Report
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Desmoplastic fibromas of bone has been described as a rare, non-metastasizing, locally aggressive, benign lesions that histologically resembles a desmoid tumour of the soft tissue [1,2]. It was initially described by Jaffe in 1958 who highlighted the histological resemblance to aggressive fibromatosis (desmoid tumour) [3]. Since his original description, approximately 150 case reports have been published [1]. Desmoplastic fibromas are very common in mandible as they constitute approximately 86% of total cases cases [4] but the current case report illustrates an interesting neoplasm which has grown to gigantic proportion in a short period of time and showed very aggressive radiographic presentation unlike conventional cases.
