  • Title: Benign osteoblastoma of the palate: a rare clinical presentation.
    Author: Sam DM, Kumar SP, Varma B, David AP, Suresh R.
    Journal: Oral Radiol; 2020 Jan; 36(1):107-111. PubMed ID: 30684212.
    Abstract:
    Osteoblastoma is a rare, benign type of osteoblastic tumor. It constitutes approximately 1% of all primary bone tumors. Osteoblastoma most commonly affects the long bones; it very rarely affects the jaw bones. Because of its clinical and histological similarity with other bony tumors, such as osteoid osteoma and fibro-osseous lesions, osteoblastoma is a diagnostic challenge. Very few cases of osteoblastoma involving the maxillofacial region have been reported to date. We herein describe a 15-year-old female patient with osteoblastoma that presented as a palatal swelling of 6 months' duration.
