Abstract

Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a benign fibro-osseous tumor with fibrous tissue, abnormal cement and bone, or a combination of such elements. These are slow-growing lesions and are more frequent in women. Here, we report the case of a 28-year-old Korean woman. The patient having no underlying disease complained about facial swelling and asymmetry. A firm mass with impacted molars and teeth deviation on the right maxilla was observed. A computed tomography scan was taken and an incisional biopsy was performed. Following this, COF was diagnosed. Complete surgical removal of the lesion was carried out. A post-operative follow-up was conducted and 3 months later the patient reported no discomfort or any sign of recurrence in regards to the lesion. Differential diagnosis with fibrous dysplasia and the COF is important because of the treatment choice. We report a case of COF and offer a review of the literature on this article.
