Introduction: Ossifying fibromas are rare, non-aggressive benign tumours of the bone, commonly involving the posterior mandible in middle-aged individuals with a female predilection.
Findings: Clinical manifestations include asymptomatic expansion of the mandible with infrequent maxillary lesions, pain, malocclusion, and compromised quality of life including aesthetic perception. Owing to multiplicity of features, tendency of recurrence, and possibility of malignant transformation, the diagnosis, treatment, and post-operative management of ossifying fibroma are always a challenge.
Takeaway Lessons: Study aims to report a clinical case of extensive swelling involving the coronoid process and condyle on the right side to crossing the mid-line of the mandible with compromised functions and aesthetics. The article describes the clinical, histopathological, and radiological features of the case. The possible treatment and challenges encountered are discussed.

Non-ossifying fibroma (NOF) is a benign expansive lytic lesion more frequently found in children and adolescents at the metaphysis of long bones in and around the knee joint, typically resolving spontaneously or by ossification. This report presents a rare case of an 11-year-old child with a pathological subtrochanteric femur fracture attributed to an underlying NOF. We describe the diagnosis and surgical management of curettage and internal fixation using a proximal humerus locking plate, resulting in complete resorption of the lytic zone and an excellent clinical outcome.

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.

Primary bone tumours of the jaw are rare tumoral entities and do substantially differ from other bone tumours of the human body with respect of their frequently encountered unusual radiological appearances. The reason for that may be confined to the co-existence of two closely neighbored but different anatomical structures (i.e.

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.
