Abstract:

Osteoblastoma is a rare solitary osteoblastic bone neoplasm. It is characterized by proliferation of osteoblasts forming trabeculae within a vascular fibrous stroma. There is a variety of jaw bone lesions with very close clinical, radiological and microscopic interrelations, which make diagnosis more challenging.
