Cemento-Ossifying Fibroma: A Case Report
Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a benign bone neoplasm; it’s considered that its origin is the periodontal ligament. Presents a slow-growing lesion and could cause deformation of affected area. A case of incidental finding in a 20-year-old patient is presented; it was found in a control examination of post-orthodontic treatment, located in the canine area of the jaw. Early diagnosis requires the integration between the clinic, the radiology and the anatomo-pathological study of the lesion; this allows early applying an adequate therapy. It is important to follow up the treated patients; in this case, it’s allowed to identify incidental findings. The interdisciplinary work was fundamental for the diagnosis and treatment of this pathology. The objective of this work is to present an incidental finding of a cemento-ossifying fibroma.
Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma - WHO Type
Juvenile ossifying fibroma is an uncommon clinical entity, its aggressive local behaviour and high recurrence rate mean that it is important
to make an early diagnosis, apply the appropriate treatment and, especially, follow the patient up over the long term. In the
current article we report a case of juvenile ossifying fibroma-WHO type in 12yr old patient which was clinical and histopathologically
challenging as it was asymptomatic and at an unusual location.
