    Author: Sun G, Chen X, Tang E, Li Z, Li J.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2007 Jan; 36(1):82-5. PubMed ID: 17018252.
    Abstract:
    Juvenile ossifying fibroma is a rare fibro-osseous neoplasm in young children. This lesion is locally aggressive and spreads quickly, and because it has a very high recurrence rate complete excision is essential. Reported here is a case of a massive juvenile ossifying fibroma of the maxilla in an 11-year-old male child. A titanium mesh was used to reconstruct the facial contour after a left total maxillectomy, achieving a satisfactory facial appearance.
