Fibrous Dysplasia and Ossifying Fibroma - an advent in their diagnosis
Objectives: Fibro-osseous lesions of the craniofacial complex comprise of a diverse, interesting and challenging group of conditions that pose difficulties in classification and treatment. The two most confused benign fibro-osseous lesions are fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma. Sometimes, the classic clinical, radiologic or pathologic features of fibrous dysplasia or ossifying fibroma may...
متن کاملFibrous Dysplasia versus Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma: A Dilemma
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a condition characterized by excessive proliferation of bone forming mesenchymal cells which can affect one bone (monostotic type) or multiple bones (polyostotic type). It is predominantly noticed in adolescents and young adults. Fibrous dysplasia affecting the jaws is an uncommon condition. The most commonly affected facial bone is the maxilla, with facial asymmetry b...
متن کاملPeripheral ossifying fibroma/ossifying fibrous epulis.
This is a case report of a reactive lesion which occurs only in the gingiva. This lesion is of a long duration causing erosion of the superficial bone. Histologically it is similar to other epulides of the gingiva but in addition contains ossified tissue. The lesion's confusing terminology is being discussed in view of its understanding to an American-trained or a British-trained surgeon. A rev...
متن کاملFibrous cortical defect and non-ossifying fibroma.
THE FIBROUS cortical defect and the non-ossifying fibroma are benign fibrous tumours occurring, in the cortex of the metaphysis, in the long bones of children and young adolescents. The fibrous cortical defect occurs in children usually under ten years of age; occasionally it develops into the more extensive lesion found in young adolescents and known as a non-ossifying fibroma. Despite the sup...
متن کاملEvaluation and histological maturation characteristics of fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma: a case series.
BACKGROUND Fibrous dysplasia (FD) and ossifying fibroma (OF) are benign fibro-osseous lesions (FOLS) that are generally considered to be separate entities distinguishable by histologic and radiographic features. The histological maturation of these lesions involves an initial fibrous state, an intermediate mixed and a final mineralised stage. OBJECTIVE To correlate the mineralisation of OF an...
