Juvenile trabecular ossifying fibroma of the maxilla: Case report of a diagnostic dilemma

Abstract

Ossifying fibromas (OFs) are benign, well‑demarcated lesions in the craniofacial region, particularly
in the jaws, with clinical, radiographic, and histopathological similarities to other lesions, which
make their diagnosis challenging. Herein, we report a case of a fibro‑osseous lesion in the anterior
maxilla of a 13‑year‑old boy, consisting of an intraosseous and an extra‑osseous part, which created a diagnostic dilemma.
Key Words: Case report, fibroma, maxillary neoplasms, ossifying
