Management of juvenile ossifying fibroma of the mandible in a patient with Apert syndrome: a case report

摘要

Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is an uncommon craniofacial fibro-osseous lesion distinguished by its locally aggressive behaviour and high recurrence rate. We report a unique case of a JOF of the anterior mandible in a patient with Apert syndrome. The clinical, radiological and histo-pathological features, along with management strategies of this distinct clinical entity are discussed.
