  • Title: Psammomatoid Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma of Mandible in a 41-Year Male Patient.
    Author: Chandolia B, Bajpai M.
    Journal: J Coll Physicians Surg Pak; 2017 Jan; 27(1):49-50. PubMed ID: 28292370.
    Abstract:
    Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a rare fibro-osseous neoplasm that develops among the craniofacial bones at an early age; and in majority of patients, it is diagnosed in the first or second decade of life. We present a case in 41-year male patient having it in the left anterior mandibular region. Peripheral eosinophilic areas resembling psammomatoid bodies along with other features impelled the diagnosis of psammomatoid ossifying fibroma. However, the term juvenile seems to be losing impact with the patients showing such features in old age.
