In a five and a half year-old child, a voluminous mandibular cyst was discovered by a dental check-up. The originality of this case consisted in the great volume of this asymptomatic lesion and the anterior localization in the mandible. Treatment was surgical, conserving the deciduous teeth and the underlying germs. The histopathological examination of the lesion confirmed the clinical and radiological aspects of follicular cyst. A regular clinical and radiologic surveillance was necessary until bone regeneration was complete, the risk of per and post-operative fracture being major.

Article Synopsis
- Fibroma ossificans are generally well-defined but not often encapsulated tumors, presenting challenges for treatment choices in maxillofacial surgery.
- A case involving a 17-year-old woman with a 6-year-old mandibular swelling revealed a benign tumor, confirmed by imaging and histological examination, leading to successful surgical resection and reconstruction.
- The report highlights the importance of considering clinical and radiological features in managing ossifying fibroids, as treatment can be invasive.

Introduction: Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a very rare tumor encountered in the jaws and its histology is quite similar to the more common giant cell granuloma of the jaws (GCGJ). These two entities can be easily confused in maxillofacial region. They are classically managed surgically, but in some localizations and in specific medical-surgical contexts, neoadjuvant therapy with denosumab may be indicated.

The term lymphoma includes a wide variety of different clinical entities including diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL). Skeletal muscle or intramuscular lymphomas represent less than 2% of B-cell Lymphoma, they are quite rare, even more in the orofacial area. We present the case of a painless growing mass of the right cheek mimicking a chronic oral cellulitis in a 34-year-old man.

Primary plasma cell leukemia (PCL) is a rare and aggressive hematological malignancy exhibiting a circulating plasma cell count exceeding 20% of peripheral blood leukocytes or an absolute plasma cell count >2000/mm3. We report a case of a 37-year-old woman presented to the Department of Hematology with a two-month history of growth inside the oral cavity in the upper jaw and weakness. The physical examination revealed a voluminous mass involving the left side of the maxillary gingiva.

Aim And Objective: The aim of this paper is to present, with a series of clinical cases, some advantages of a modified surgical technique using fixed bone flaps in an approach to voluminous maxillary or mandibular odontogenic cysts (excluding keratocysts) and highlight the positive impact on the healing of mucus and bone tissues.
Background: The surgical approach of the enucleation of voluminous maxillary cysts is generally realized with a subtractive osteoplasty. The major problem with this kind of procedure is frequent fibrous healing (or scar formation) of the cavity due to mucosal invagination, especially for large lesions more than 2 cm in diameter.
