Fibro-osseous lesions are composed of connective tissue and varying amount of mineralized substances, which may be bony or cementum-like structures. It is necessary for oral radiologist to differentiate due to the tendency of these fibro-osseous lesions to show similar histopathologic appearances, while the management of each lesion is different. However we often encounter a little difficulty in judgement because there are some overlaps between concept of each lesions. So recently I suggest, we face a need to review basic concept and classification of several fibro-osseous jaw lesions. In this article, several fibre-osseous lesions, such as fibrous dysplasia, cemento-ossifying fibroma and cemento-osseous dysplasia, will be discussed basing on the review of literature. particular emphasis will be made on the nomenclature revision of WHO's classification in 1992.

Purpose: This study was intended to estimate the prevalence of cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) in the Korean population and to assess the clinical and radiographic characteristics of this condition. Materials and Methods: Panoramic radiographs from 10,646 patients (4,982 males and 5,664 females, age range from 6 to 91 years) were reviewed for evidence of COD. Their demographics, clinical characteristics, and radiographic features were retrospectively assessed. Results: Of 10,646 panoramic radiographs, 33 radiographs (0.31 %) exhibited evidence of COD. The prevalence of COD increased to over 1 % in women over 40-years old. Of these 33 patients, 16 had florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) and 17 had focal COD. Due to the multiplicity of FCOD, a total of 63 COD lesions were assessed. These lesions were most common in the mandibular molar area. Most of the COD lesions examined (61.9%) were less than 10 mm and the majority (82.5%) showed radiopacity. Conclusion : COD has a predilection for the mandibular molar area of middle-aged and older women.

Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) is benign, non-neoplastic lesion characterized by multiple sclerosing masses. Cases of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis in FCOD have been rarely reported. we present the patient had multiple osteonecrosis with FCOD in the jaw that occurred after receiving bisphosphonates for eight years due to osteoporosis This report discussed the importance of evaluation of the bone disease in the jaw before bisphosphonate treatment and periodic follow-up.

Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) is a benign, non-neoplastic lesion characterized by multiple sclerosing masses only within jawbones. It is frequently confused with chronic diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis (CDSO) in previous literatures. In our study, two cases of FCOD were examined to know the characteristics of their calcifying tissues. The first case was non-infected, while the second case was severely infected, displaying the typical features of CDSO in clinico-radiologic findings. The infected FCOD case showed a lot of bacterial colonies in the main lesion with relatively rare inflammatory reaction. The globular cementum-like materials of FCOD showed woven bone pattern and was positive for Alcian blue stain, and also positive for the antibodies of ameloblastin, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) -2 and -4. On the other hands, in the immunostains of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) -3, -9, -10, and $TNF-{\alpha}$, macrophage infiltrated in the FCOD lesion was rarely observed. These data suggest that the cementum-like materials of FCOD contain various matrix proteins, and that the cementum-like materials are relevant to the overgrowth of the bacterial colonies by inhibition of the regional inflammatory reactions.

백악질 골화성 섬유종은 가장 흔히 발생하는 섬유 골성 병소(fibro-osseous lesion)로서, 경계가 분명하고, 느리게 성장하는 팽창성의 양성종양이다. 임상적으로 하악골의 소구치와 대구치 부위에서 발생하고, 여성에게서 2배 정도 호발하며, 주로 20대에서 30대 사이에서 발견된다. 백악질 골화성 섬유종은 섬유성 이형성증을 포함한 다른 섬유 골성 병소와 감별되어야 한다. 백악질 골화성 섬유종의 또 다른 형태인 유년형 골화성 섬유종은 15세 이하에서 발생하며, 빠르게 성장하고, 좀 더 골파괴적인 양상을 보인다. 치료는 병소의 크기 에 따른 절제술이고, 재발은 드물다고 알려져 있다. 본 증례는 우측 하악 견치의 미맹출을 주소로 내원한 12세 남자 어린이로, 백악질 골화성 섬유종으로 진단 후, 외과적 적출술을 시행하여 양호한 치유과정을 보이기에 보고하는 바이다.

Since the fibro-osseous lesion is not a specific diagnostic term, the author studied clinically and radiologically 44 cases which had been diagnosed as fibro-osseous lesion in SNUDH (1972- 1981. 12).The obtained results were as follows. 1. Clinico-radiologically, the cases of fibro-osseous lesions were divided into two groups. 2. The first group was fibrous dysplasia (21 cases). 3. The second group was tumors of periodontal ligament origin, including ossifying fibroma, cementifying fibroma and cemento-ossifying fibroma (23 cases). 4. In most cases the chief complaint was painless swelling of the jaw and the mean age of the fibrous dysplasia (24.6 yrs) was a little younger than that of the periodontal ligament origin lesions (29.2 yrs). 5. In fibrous dysplasia, maxilla was more often involved and showed ground-glass or smoke pattern radiologically. 6. The tumors of periodontal ligament origin occurred more in female, mandible and radiologically showed varying amounts of radiopaque foci in well-circumscribed osteolytic lesion.

Florid osseous dysplasia (FOD) is an uncommon, benign, cemento-osseous lesion of the jaws. The etiology of FOD is still unknown. It is often asymptomatic and may be identified on routine dental radiographs. The classic radiographic appearance of FOD is amorphous, lobulated, mixed radiolucent/radiopaque masses of cotton-wool appearance with a sclerotic border in the jaws. In our case the lesion was found incidentally on routine periapical radiographs taken for restored teeth and edentulous areas. For further and detailed examination, a panoramic radiograph and cone-beam computed tomograph (CBCT) were taken. The panoramic radiograph and CBCT revealed maxillary bilateral and symmetrical, non-expansile, well-defined, round, radiopaque masses in contact with the root of the maxillary right second molar and left first molar teeth. Our aim in presenting this case report was to highlight the importance of imaging in diagnosis of FOD.

A 31 years old female had been suffered from a bony swelling in right premolar region of the mandible for 12 years, recently grown rapidly. A fistula tract developed on the right anterior mandibular border, but the lesion was relatively asymptomatic. In the radiological examination, the tumor mass was irregularly mixed with radiolucent and radiopaque areas, forming multiple cystic spaces. Under the diagnosis of calcifying odontogenic cyst, the mandibular mass was resected and examined pathologically. After decalcification, the dissected tumor mass showed multiple small cystic spaces and calcifying fibrous tissue, mimicking calcifying odontogenic cyst or ameloblastoma. Histological observation showed many calcifying cementoid materials and ossifying trabeculae. The cystic spaces were turned out to be dilated vascular channels lined by endothelial cells, containing plasma fluid. However, the main lesion was diagnosed as cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF), and the atypical vascular channels were greatly dilated and gradually expanded the whole tumor mass. The present COF was examined through immunohistochemical (IHC) array, and investigated for tumor cell characteristics, exhibiting abnormal ossification and aneurysmal cystic changes. IHC array disclosed that the tumor cells grew progressively in the lack of apoptosis, and that they showed lower expression of RUNX2 than BMP-2, RANKL, and OPG, and increases of protein expression in $HIF-1{\alpha}$, VEGF-A, and CMG2. These data suggested that the reduced expression of RUNX2, osteoblast differentiation factor, be relevant to abnormal ossification of COF, and that the consistent expressions of angiogenesis factors be relevant to de novo angiogenesis in COF, subsequently resulted in aneurysmal cystic changes.

저자동은 약 1년전 모 병원에서 하악과 상악에 각기 안모변형과 골팽창을 동반한 병소에 대해 수술을 재발한 치주인대에서 기인한 양성 섬유골성 병소를 치험하였으며 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 본증례 1은 32세 남자의 우측 하악 골체부에서 술후 약 1년만에 재발된 백악질골섬유종이었고 증례 2는 72세 여자의 상악 전치부에서 술후 약 5개월만에 재발소견을 보인 골섬유종이었다. 2. 방사선학적 소견에서 증례 1은 방사선 투과상의 병소내에 방사선불투과상의 석회화 물질이 함유된 혼합기의 상태였고 증례 2는 비교적 불명확한 경계를 가졌으나 방사선 투명대에 의해 치밀한 방사선 불투과상의 병소가 둘러싸여 있는 성숙기의 상태였다. 3. 조직병리학적 소견으로 두 증례 모두 조골세포의 부연이나 규칙적인 골소주 구조 및 기절내 세포성분의 증가를 관찰할 수 있었으나 증례 1에서는 골성분외에 백악질소적과 같은 석회화물질이 관찰되었고 증례 2에서는 층판골만이 관찰되어 증례 1은 백악질골섬유종, 증례 2는 골섬유종의 특징을 지닌 양성 섬유 골성 병소였다. 4. 재발된 병소이므로 증례 1은 하악 우측 제 1소구치부터 우각부까지 하악골 절제술과 장골 및 하치조신경 이식술을, 증례 2는 정상 인접골을 포함한 종물의 적출술을 시행하였다. 5. 술후 1년이 경과한 현재까지 정기적인 임상 및 방사선 검사결과 재발증상 없이 양호한 치유 경과를 보여주고 있다.
