Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is a benign non-neoplastic intraosseous lesion mainly found in the anterior mandible. It is characterized by multinucleated giant cells, representing osteoclasts or macrophages. Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) is an uncommon benign lesion of the jaws. It originates from the odontogenic ectomesenchyme. In rare cases, COF may accompany a CGCG. To date, 49 cases of COF accompanied by CGCG-like lesions have been reported in the literature. In this paper, we present another case of COF-CGCG in a 46-year-old female. The lesion was located in the posterior mandible. Excisional biopsy was carried out, and histopathological analysis revealed multinucleated giant cells with numerous strands of odontogenic epithelium. A literature review of previously reported cases was also performed.

Introduction: Central Odontogenic Fibroma (COF) is a rare benign odontogenic tumour of the jaws. Until its recent change in classification by the WHO in 2017, this entity has gone without an agreed upon definition for many years. For this reason, COF would remain largely unknown to practitioners. Corpus: The pedagogical objectives of this article are, through a systematic review of the literature using the PRISMA methodology, to list the epidemiological, aetiological, clinical, radiological, histological, therapeutic and prognostic characteristics of COF. All the data collected made it possible to establish a COF management summary for practitioners in order to optimize it. Conclusion: Based on the 135 cases listed, it appears that surgical enucleation is the treatment of choice for COF. The recurrence rate is low and malignant transformation has never been reported. However, regular clinical and radiological follow-up of patients over several years seems to be a justified precaution.

Central odontogenic fibroma is an uncommon, benign, slow-growing intraosseous mesenchymal odontogenic tumour. It presents a diagnostic dilemma to the clinician and the pathologist because its clinical and radiological features resemble other odontogenic and/or non-odontogenic tumours, and the differential diagnosis is based on histological examination. In this report, we describe our experience with a case of a 23-year-old female patient with central odontogenic fibroma of the mandible that was diagnosed as ‘simple type’. Highlighting a subtype that was dropped from the last World Health Organization classification of head and neck tumours is important to accumulate more information about this lesion and to show its different features. Despite its rarity, central odontogenic fibroma should be included in the differential diagnosis of intrabony tumours of the jaws. These findings can better educate oral and maxillofacial surgeons about the unusual nature of this lesion, help establish a correct diagnosis and give the appropriate therapeutic management.
