Neoformazione esofitica mandibolare in una giovane paziente

2022

Una donna caucasica di 18 anni si presentava all’osservazione presso il Settore di Medicina Orale (Università degli Studi di Palermo) data la comparsa di una neoformazione localizzata in zona trigono retromolare destro. L’anamnesi patologica non evidenziava la presenza di patologie sistemiche attuali o pregresse. La paziente era in buone condizioni di salute, riferiva di non assumere farmaci e di non avere subito alcun intervento chirurgico; dichiarava di non avere mai fumato. La paziente riferiva un lento e progressivo accrescimento della lesione, in assenza di sintomatologia algica. L’esame obiettivo extra-orale non evidenziava linfoadenopatie latero-cervicali o altre anomalie. All’esame …

A Cemento-ossifying fibroma of the mandible in an 18 years old female patient: a case report

Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma of Orbit-A rare case report and review of literature

2021

Fibro osseous lesions of the craniofacial skeleton are a benign condition in which the normal architecture of the bone is replaced by fibrous connective tissue with varying degrees of mineralization. JOF forms a special entity among the fibro osseous lesions because of its age of occurrence and its aggressive nature thereby mimicking a malignancy. The Juvenile Ossifying Fibromas were further subdivided into Psammomatoid and Trabecular variant based on their histopathological characteristics. They tend to differ in their mineralized portion with the trabecular variant showing woven bone while the psammamotoid shows lamellated and spherical ossicles in various shapes in a myxoid stroma interm…

Fibrous Dysplasia and Ossifying Fibroma-an advent in their diagnosis

2011

Objectives: Fibro-osseous lesions of the craniofacial complex comprise of a diverse, interesting and challenging group of conditions that pose difficulties in classification and treatment. The two most confused benign fibro-osseous lesions are fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma. Sometimes, the classic clinical, radiologic or pathologic features of fibrous dysplasia or ossifying fibroma may not be evident, but overlapping features of both may be seen. The dilemma in diagnosis of these lesions rests in the bony trabeculae as well as in the fibrous stroma. Cases of fibrous dysplasia showing lamellated bony trabeculae and osteoblastic rimming have been reported which may confound diagnosis…

Recurrent ossifying fibroma of the maxillary sinus in an adult patient.

2013

In some aspects, the terminology of fibro-osseous lesions of the head remain equivocal. The WHO classification suggested to group cemento-ossifying fibroma and ossifying fibroma under the term "ossifying fibroma". Based on the different age of onset, localization and risk of recurrence, two types have been described: "juvenile ossifying fibroma", with early age of onset, which needs to be treated with wide surgical resection due to the high risk of recurrence; and "adult ossifying fibroma", arising in adult patients, with low recurrence rate, properly treated by conservative surgery. We describe a case of an "adult ossifying fibroma" of a 57-yearold woman with several relapses, for whom con…

Reactive hyperplastic lesions of the oral cavity: A ten year observational study on North Indian Population.

2011

Back ground: The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of focal reactive hyperplastic lesions of the oral cavity as reported in the Department of Oral Pathology and Microbiology, Subharti Dental College, Meerut and to compare these data with those of previously reported studies from other regions and countries. Material and Method: Patient records of the Department of Oral Pathology were retrieved during a 10 year period from 2001 to 2010. Data of all reactive hyperplasias namely focal fibrous hyperplasia (FFH), pyogenic granuloma (PG), peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) and peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) were reviewed and analyzed for age, gender, and site of location. R…

Juvenile central ossifying fibroma of the mandible: a case report

2010

Central ossifying fibroma is a rare fibro-osseous neoplasm in young children. It is highly aggressive and has a strong tendency to recur. We describe an 11-year-old girl with juvenile central ossifying fibromas of the mandible that caused obstruction of tooth eruption of the lower left second premolar. Oral examination revealed the presence of the primary lower left second molar and a small bony hard swelling over the left side of the mandibular body. After a computed tomographic scan, an incisional biopsy was performed, and the lesion proved to be a juvenile ossifying fibroma. Although this tumor often recurs early, and many authors suggest radical en bloc resection, we performed a more co…

Frailty and risk of complications in head and neck oncologic surgery. Systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis

2021

Background There is emerging evidence that frail individuals present a decreased physiological reserve, decreased ability to maintain homeostasis, and increased vulnerability to stressors. The concept of frailty has become increasingly recognized as a valuable measure in oncological surgical patients, including those with head and neck cancer. Preoperative screening for frailty may provide an individualized risk assessment that can be used by an interdisciplinary team for preoperative counseling and to improve outcomes. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the relationship between frailty and the risk of major postoperative complications in frail individuals submitted to head and n…
