Background Hyperparathyroidism-Jaw Tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome is a rare genetic disorder bearing both a germline and a somatic CDC73 mutation (formerly known as HRPT2), which has been mapped to chromosome 1q25-q31. The association of jaw ossifying fibroma with primary hyperparathyroidisim (PHPT) is typical of HPT-JT. It may also include cystic and neoplastic renal abnormalities and uterine tumors....

Central ossifying fibroma is a benign slow-growing tumor of mesenchymal origin and it tends to occur in the second and third decades of life, with predilection for women and for the mandibular premolar and molar areas. Clinically, it is a large asymptomatic tumor of aggressive appearance, with possible tooth displacement. Occasionally treated by curettage enucleation, this conservative surgical...

This case report documents a case of a 15-year-old girl with a large peripheral ossifying fibroma in the posterior maxilla showing significant growth and interference with occlusion. Methods: Review of lit...

Ossifying fibroma (cementoma) is a tumor of mesenchymal origin which represents about 1% of odontogenic tumors. It is commonly found in patients under 25, more often so in women. As its growth is slow and painless, it is usually accidentally detected by dental radiological examination. The aim of our study was to present the histopathological dilemma concerning the naming of a rare odontogenic ...

BACKGROUND Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF) is a rare fibro-osseous lesion that usually occurs in the facial bones. The pathognomonic histopathologic feature is the presence of spherical ossicles, which are similar to psammoma bodies. It is considered to be a unique lesion because of its reported tendency to occur in children and adolescents and its tendency for locally aggressive...
