Abstract
Facial
swellings in children may commonly arise from infection, jaw cysts or
benign-malign tumors. Differential diagnosis should be handled considering
onset of the symptoms, growth rate and child’s age. Fibro-osseous lesions are a
group of lesions characterized by fibrosis and contain varying amounts of
calcified tissue resembling bone, cement or both. Such lesions may cause
enlargement and swelling in the jaws. Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is one
of the fibro-osseous lesions usually seen in children and adolescents. It has
an aggressive character with a high recurrence rate. Mandible is more affected than
maxilla and psammomatoid type is more common than trabecular type
histologically. Bone resection is generally preferred for the treatment due to
nature of the tumor.
Here we report a rare case of trabecular type JOF
located in the mandible of an 8-year-old child treated by conservative
surgery.
