Desmoplastic fibroma (DF) is a rare benign but aggressive fibrous lesion with an unknown etiology. It has an affinity for the mandible. DF has a high rate of recurrence after surgical resection. In this study, we report the therapeutic management of a recurrence of DF in the lower jaw in a 2-year-old boy. He responded well to second surgical intervention with wide resection and immediate reconstruction with plate. The purpose of this case report is to emphasize the particularity of the case, treatment modalities, and differential diagnosis in DF.

Desmoplastic fibroblastoma (collagenous fibroma) is a rare, benign fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumor that usually arises in the subcutaneous and intramuscular tissues. This tumor type has rarely been described to arise primarily in bones. This is a case of intraosseous desmoplastic fibroblastoma occurring in the mandible of a 35-year-old woman that was detected incidentally during a routine dental examination.

Desmoplastic fibroma (DF) is an uncommon benign bone tumor that typically affects the facial bones, with cerebral cranium involvement being extremely rare. We report a unique case of DF in the parietal bone of a 28-year-old woman, notable for its rapid growth during pregnancy-a phenomenon not previously documented. The imaging features of this case also differ from all but one previously reported case.

Objectives: Microvascular free tissue transfer (MVFTT) for head and neck reconstruction is infrequently performed in pediatric patients. There is a paucity of data on perioperative airway management in pediatric MVFTT, such as the need for tracheostomy, which can pose higher morbidity to young patients due to potential long-term effects on the softer, more pliable laryngotracheal cartilage. Our objective was to report airway outcomes on pediatric patients undergoing MVFTT after segmental mandibulectomy with or without tracheostomy.

Background/aim: Desmoplastic fibroblastoma, also known as collagenous fibroma, is a rare benign mesenchymal neoplasm that primarily arises in the subcutaneous tissue of upper extremities and limb girdles. The knee is an uncommon location for desmoplastic fibroblastoma. Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of immunoreactivity for FOS like 1 (FOSL1) and rearrangements of FOSL1.
