A case of peripheral ossifying fibroma is presented. The important clinical and histological features are discussed, along with the differential diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.

introduction juvenile ossifying fibroma is a benign, bone-forming neoplasm with aggressive local growth that is distinguished from other fibro-osseous lesions primarily by its age of onset, clinical presentation and aggressive behavior. although a benign entity, juvenile ossifying fibroma is known to be locally aggressive and has a high tendency to recur. two distinctive microscopic patterns ha...

Fibro-osseous benign lesions rarely affect the sinonasal tract and are divided into 3 different entities, namely osteoma, fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma. They share several clinical, radiological and histological similarities, but have different behaviours. Ossifying fibroma, and in particular the "juvenile" histological subtype, may have a locally aggressive evolution and a high risk ...

A case of ossifying fibromyxoid tumour of the soft part, a rare neoplasm arising about the knee of a young man is reported. The tumour has the characteristic morphology, having a thin bony shell, vascular myxohyaline stroma with oval or slightly spindly epitheloid cells arranged in cord pattern. The important histomorphological features have been highlighted and illustrated. The histogenesis, b...

introduction: non-ossifying fibroma (nof) is a relatively common benign and non-neoplastic lesion in long bones of children and adolescents. as far as very few cases of nof have been reported in jaws and what was managed to be found regarding all reported cases having occurred only in the mandible, in this article we are going to report a case of maxillary nof in a 38-year-old female.

Cemento-ossifying fibroma is a rare benign fibro-osseous neoplasm commonly involving the jaws majority of lesions occur in mandible bone. It can be discovered as an incidental finding radiological imaging. Symptomatic patients are presented with slowly growing mass bone and attain large size passage time. cause facial deformity if left untreated. We present such case right hemi-mandible bone, i...

BACKGROUND To assess and describe the variability of radiological presentations of fibrous cortical defects and non-ossifying fibromas in children and young adults. MATERIAL/METHODS Medical records of 28 patients (15 males, 13 females, mean age of 17 years) with a radiological diagnosis of cortical fibrous defect or non-ossifying fibroma were reviewed retrospectively. The presentation of the ...

INTRODUCTION Peripheral giant cell granuloma and peripheral ossifying fibroma are clinicopathologically distinct gingival lesions. Both are included in clinical differential diagnoses of common benign and reactive gingival epulides in humans. It is often impossible to make a clinical distinction between the two entities, thereby making definitive diagnosis dependent on histopathologic features....
