Psammomatoid juvenile ossifying fibroma (PJOF) is a benign fibro-osseous lesion that mainly affects the paranasal sinuses and periorbital bones. It may cause significant esthetic and functional impairment. Herein, we describe the diagnosis and surgical approach of an extensive PJOF arising in the frontal sinus of a young male. After complete lesion removal and histopathological confirmation, the bone defect was repaired with a customized polymethylmethacrylate implant. PJOF may present aggressive clinical behavior. The excision of extensive PJOF in the orbitofrontal area can result in significant esthetic defects. Polymethacrylate implants restore functionally and esthetically the involved area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
