A computed tomography scan of the chest in an 83-year-old male patient with a history metastatic squamous cell lung cancer revealed mass localized to left ventricle. Subsequent imaging this be incidental cardiac fibroma.

primary cardiac tumors are quite rare, especially in the pediatric age group, and their atypical presentations often prevent a timely diagnosis. most primary cardiac tumors in the pediatric age group are benign. fibromas are generally reported as the second most common primary cardiac tumors in the pediatric age group. these neoplasms are often intramural and involve the left ventricular free w...

Juvenile aggressive ossifying fibroma (JAOF) is an uncommon benign lesion which is distinctly aggressive in behavior with high tendency for recurrence. It appears in early age and in 79% of patients is diagnosed before 15. It has two histological variants: psammomatoid and trabecular, with the latter being less common with a stronger tendency to recur. In this article, we present a case of trab...

Focal gingival enlargements are a diverse group of lesions with almost similar clinical presentation but varied etiology and histopathology. The actual cause of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) has been debated over many years. POFs are usually seen in childhood and younger ages. There is a slight female predilection. It is usually localized, rarely generalized. Usually, the treatment option ...

Introduction: The peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a reactive gingival overgrowth occurring frequently in the anterior maxilla. It originates in the cells of the periodontal ligament and is more common in children and young adults. Case Report: In the current article a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) in the anterior maxillary gingiva is highlighted, which histologically showed c...

The odontogenic fibroma is a rare, benign tumor of mesodermal origin, and one of the most ill-defined and least understood of all odontogenic neoplasms. 1 It presently is thought to originate from either dental follicle, periodontal ligament, or dental papilla. 2 Bhaskar reported the lesion as being the most common odontogenic tumor comprising approximately 23°70 of all odontogenic lesions. 3 T...

giant cell fibroma (gcf) was described as a new entity of fibrous hyperplastic soft tissue. it seems that stimulus from an unexplained origin can have a role in its etiology. histopathologically gcf is consisted of multinucleated fibroblasts that have oval shape nuclei within the eosinophilic cytoplasm. surgical excision is the treatment of choice and recurrence is very rare. here we report a c...

A benign focal non-reactive lesion that has been reported in the literature under a variety of names, Calcifying Fibroblastic Granuloma or Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma (POF) can occur usually younger age group with female predilection. POF be perplexing to clinician as clinical similarity pyogenic granuloma fibroma is astounding. It cause erosion bone and underlying structures recurrence rate r...

Objective: To report the case of a 20-year-old female patient with an unusual presentation soft nipple fibroma as well its surgical excision confirmation diagnosis by histopathology, also reviewing all cases so far published. Case details: Female, 20 years old, pedunculated, and painless lesion on left insidious growth since she was six old. Tangential histopathological examination were perform...

Juvenile aggressive ossifying fibroma is a rare benign but locally aggressive tumor with high recurrent potentials. Juvenile aggressive ossifying fibroma poses diagnostic challenges because of its rapidly growing nature. A 7-years-old female child presented to the pediatric unit of our institution with a 9-month history of right maxillary tumor. An initial diagnosis of Burkitt's lymphoma was ma...
