  • Title: Ossifying fibroma of the occipital bone.
    Author: Yamashita J, Aoki M, Waga S, Handa H.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1977 Apr; 7(4):189-92. PubMed ID: 403629.
    Abstract:
    A rare ossifying fibroma in the occipital bone is described, and the available literature reviewed. The rapid growth seen in this case was remarkable and led us to believe this was a malignant osteogenic tumor. Full knowledge and the correct diagnosis of ossifying fibroma should have prevented an unnecessarily extensive operation for this benign lesion.
