Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor consisting of both ectodermal and mesenchymal components. It occurs predominantly in children and adolescents, especially in the mandibular posterior region. Histopathologically, AFO exhibits the combination of ameloblastic fibroma-like tissue and complex odontoma. A case of AFO in a 1-year-old child was presented. It produced ...

An ameloblastic fibroodontoma (AFO) is a rare odontogenic tumor of mixed dental tissue origin. It exhibits histological features of ameloblastic fibroma and complex odontoma. AFOs are usually found to be asymptomatic and are most often discovered on routine radiography. Sometimes their presence is suspected due to missing permanent dentition. We report a case of an 18-year-old female patient wi...

Cemento-ossifying fibromas are rare fibro-osseous benign neoplasms that affect the jaws. They are included in the group of mesodermal odontogenic tumors and commonly present as a progressively growing lesion that might attain enormous size with resultant deformity, if left untreated. A confusion prevails on the terminology, which can only be confirmed by histopathologic evaluation. A case of ce...

One of the rarest entities of fibro-osseous lesions that arise within the craniofacial bones is Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF). It is an intraosseous expansile lesion of the jaw that imitate odontogenic lesions. WHO has described two distinct histopathological variants of JOF; trabecular and psammomatoid. Histologically, they are characterized by the presence of fibrous connective tissue stro...

We report a case of 15-year-old boy presented with painless swelling of right side of lower jaw since 2 years. A provisional diagnosis of dentigerous cyst involving an impacted lower second premolar was concluded after clinical examination. Radiographs revealed an expanding, well demarcated radiolucency with thin, fine, straight septae, causing root resorption and displacement of adjacent teeth...
