Fibro-osseous Lesions of the Maxillo Facial Region – a Case Series with Review
نویسنده
چکیده
fibro-osseous lesions of the maxillofacial region are a distinct group of pathological condition in which all variations demonstrate replacement of normal bone by a fibrous connective-tissue matrix within which varying amounts or combinations of osteoid & mature bone and, in some instances, cementing like tissue are deposited. All of them have similar clinical, radiologic and histologic features. The diagnosis of these becomes mandatory because of the different treatment modalities for each of these lesions. Here in we have repoated three cases of Fibro-osseous lesions in the maxillofacial region with review of literature.

Cone beam computed tomography is a useful technique for imaging the craniofacial lesions. It produces more realistic images that facilitate interpretation. Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a rare and benign fibro-osseous neoplasm that arises within the craniofacial bones, especially in the maxilla. Mandibular lesions can be seen in 10% of the cases.In both jaws, it has a predilection for the...
متن کاملFibrous dysplasia of the mandible: a case report
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous disease of bone of unknown etiology. Its occurrence in the maxillo-facial region is frequent. Because of the benign nature of the condition, the surgery itself should be relatively conservative. Recently, bisphosphonates have shown progress in the treatment of patients with fibrous dysplasia. In the current case report, combination of enucleation and ...

The aim of this case series was to reveal the difficulties in diagnosing fibro-osseous lesions with radiological and histopathological examinations and quantify the potential risk of infection to fibro-osseous legions. To analyze the concordance between radiological and histopathological diagnoses, this retrospective case series included patients who were clinically diagnosed with fibro-osseous...
