Psammomatoid Juvenile Ossifying Fibroma is an uncommon fibro-osseous neoplasm of aggressive but benign nature found in the younger age. Its aggressive path can lead to facial deformation, eye proptosis, and development of intracranial extensions leading to various neurological symptoms. A systematic review based by the MOOSE guideline in Medline, EMBASE and Lilacs, resulted in 23 reported cases of intracranial extended PJOF. Hence, we found it relevant to present a case report of a 15-year-old male with facial deformation and left eye proptosis absent of visual disturbances with PJOF. The lesion was present in the left anterior base of the skull and extended to the intra-orbital space and over the zygomatic arch. The diagnosis was only confirmed as PJOF by histopathological analysis of the completely resected lesion. Follow up visits documented unremarkable regression of the facial deformity and post-op images showed a completely resected lesion. Our case raises the need to be aware of this rare tumor that can be confused with a meningioma or other intracranial tumors.

ABSTRACT Fibroosseous lesions of the jaws, including juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF), pose diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties due to their clinical, radiological, and histological variability. There are two histological varieties of it, one as psammomatoid type and second as trebacular type; here, we present a trebacular type, which is a rare variety. After the clinical examination, radiological and histological analysis, it was diagnosed as juvenile trebacular ossifying fibroma. Although JOF is an uncommon clinical entity, its aggressive local behavior and high recurrence rate means that it is important to make an early diagnosis, apply the appropriate treatment, and, especially, follow-up the patient over the long term.

Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a rare, benign, bone forming lesion of children and adolescents. When sited in the jaws, it is considered as an aggressive form of ossifying fibroma presenting with a wide range of clinical symptoms and a high incidence of recurrence. Although early detection and management is thought to eradicate it completely. The present case report focuses on the surgical yet conservative management of JOF in a 5 years old boy who reported with a year-long, progressive swelling on the left side of his face. The tumour was excised with minimal surgical intervention into a clearly defined and lobulated single mass using maxillary vestibular incision under general anaesthesia. The postoperative course was uneventful, and no signs of recurrence were found in the next 6 months follow-up period.

Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is an uncommon, benign, bone-forming neoplasm with aggressive local growth that is distinguished from other fibro-osseous lesions primarily by its age of onset, clinical presentation and potential behaviour. We reported a 10 year old girl presenting with a growth in the left upper buccal gingiva which later was diagnosed as juvenile ossifying fibroma. The nature of the disease and outline of management were discussed. Keywords: Ossifying fibroma; Juvenile; Maxilla.

The isolated appendiceal Crohn’s disease without preceding bowel symptoms is a rare phenomenon, especially in older patients. In this case report, we present a 60-year-old female with isolated appendiceal Crohn’s disease presenting with acute appendicitis. She presented with classical features of appendicitis with elevated inflammatory markers. She underwent an appendectomy which showed an excessively swollen, oedematous, and reddish appendix with swelling extending to the base of the caecum. Histological evaluation was suggestive of Crohn’s disease, and subsequent colonoscopy was unremarkable. Following appendectomy, she was asymptomatic without any recurrence of disease. The atypical morphological appearance of the appendix should raise suspicion of Crohn’s disease. This case highlights the importance of histopathological analysis of the specimen, especially in abnormal clinical findings. The prognosis of such patients seems to be good, and additional treatment is rarely needed.

ABSTRACT Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a highly aggressive uncommon fibro-osseous lesion occurring in the facial bones. Two histological variants of JOF, i.e. trabecular and psammomatoid have been reported. Here we present a case of a 20-year-old juvenile diabetic patient with massive growth on her left side of the jaw which was diagnosed as juvenile ossifying fibroma. This huge aggressive mass in the left side of the mandible had lead to complete lingual tilting of molars and premolars. After clinical and radiological examination, a biopsy led to the histopathological diagnosis of mixed variant of juvenile ossifying fibroma. The required surgical treatment (hemimandibulectomy) was undertaken under GA. The aggressive local behavior and high recurrence rate of JOF emphasizes the need for an early diagnosis, and appropriate radical treatment with long-term follow-up. One such case is reviewed and discussed in detail in the following article.
