Published: July 2018

Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF) is a rare tumor that occurs in maxillary sinus or orbit. Complete removal is required due to the aggressive and locally destructive nature. It is hard to distinguish from psammomatoid meningioma in cranial lesion and to remove completely. The authors are presenting a case of 26-year-old male with JPOF on skull base and report this case with review of literature.

Objective: To assess the sclerostin, β-catenin, and tryptase expression in fibro-osseous lesions (FOL) of the jaws.

Subjects And Methods: Immunohistochemistry analysis was performed for these proteins on FOL and non-lesional bone. The sclerostin-positive cells were scored from 0 (no expression) to 3 (high expression).

Ossifying fibroma (OF) is a rare benign fibro-osseous neoplasm developing mostly in maxillo-facial bones. OF is divided in cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF), juvenile trabecular ossifying fibroma (JTOF) and psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (PSOF). The aim of this systematic review was to synthetize the existing literature on OF, investigating the clinical and radiological parameters related to the different forms of the disease, and to compare the treatment modalities according to their associated recurrence rate.

Article Synopsis
  • The World Health Organization's 2022 update has transformed the diagnosis and treatment of odontogenic and maxillofacial bone tumors by incorporating new molecular insights.
  • Fibro-osseous lesions include various types like fibrous dysplasia and Ossifying Fibromas, which, while histologically similar, differ in clinical effects and prognosis, making accurate diagnosis essential.
  • The text discusses two specific cases—fibrous dysplasia and Cemento-Ossifying Fibroma—highlighting their diagnoses, clinical experiences, and management approaches, while ensuring ethical considerations were met.

Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a neurocutaneous syndrome with vascular lesions of the cerebral meninges, port wine spots on the face, and glaucoma of the eyes; it is a congenital, non-genetic disease whose etiology and mechanisms are unknown. In this report, we describe a rare case of SWS with unilateral large odontogenic tumors in the maxilla and mandible. The histopathological diagnosis of the maxillary bone lesion on biopsy was juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma, which is considered a type of ossifying fibroma of craniofacial bone origin.

Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) and its variants, including juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF), represent rare yet clinically significant benign fibro-osseous lesions that primarily occur in children and young adolescents. They can be found in diverse anatomical sites such as the jaw, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, and orbit. JOF exhibits an aggressive nature, necessitating early radiological detection and surgical intervention.
