“…Resection with the affected tooth remains the treatment of choice since the lesion has tendency to recur owing to its unlimited growth potential [16]. In this case, the tooth was not removed but fortunately, there was no recurrence, consistent with reports of similar favorable outcomes of conservative excision [17].…”

Concomitant bilateral mandibular cemento-ossifying fibroma and cementoblastoma: case report of an extremely rare occurrence

et al. 2021

Background Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) and cementoblastoma (CB) are rare benign odontogenic tumors with a predilection for the mandible. Cemento-ossifying fibroma is a fibro-osseous lesion that originates in the tooth bearing areas of jaw and shows cementum-like tissue in a fibrotic stroma. Cementoblastoma is classically related to roots of teeth with the presence of calcified cementum-like material. To date, only a single case of concomitant unilateral COF and CB has been reported in the literature. Case presentation We present an unusual case of a 37-year-old female who presented with two discrete bilateral swellings in the right and left mandible for 10 years. The larger tumor involved the left posterior mandible with extension anteriorly to the left and right anterior mandibles, and the smaller tumor was present in right posterior mandible. Radiology revealed two distinct lesions involving both sides of mandible. Histopathological examination showed characteristic features of cemento-ossifying fibroma in sections of the larger tumor and cementoblastoma in sections of smaller tumor. Conclusion This case shows the very unique bilateral co-existence of COF and CB, the second case reported in literature to date.

“…The tumor generally occurs among young population and has equal sex distribution [10,11,12]. Associated tooth is usually vital and if the pathological changes of tooth are presented they are coincidental [13]. Cementoblastoma has a pathognomonic radiographic appearance as a well-defined solitary ovoid radiopacity with a thin radiolucent periphery.…”

Cementoblastoma: An unusual radiographic presentation

et al. 2020

Introduction. Cementoblastoma is an uncommon tumor of the jaws that originate from odontogenic ectomesenchyme, characterized by proliferating cementum-like tissue. Case Outline. We present the case of a cementoblastoma in the mandible with atypical radiographic image: no well-defined borders and no radiolucent rim. Apart of that, taking into account data from the literature review, different clinicopathological, and radiographic presentations of tumors and lesions that may resemble cementoblastoma are discussed. Conclusion. Cementoblastoma must be removed as soon as possible, together with the associated tooth. Recurrence rate is a relevant phenomenon and is estimated to 11.8%, so the long-term follow-up is mandatory.

“…Treatment for a cementoblastoma is complete excision, and often involves extraction of the associated tooth, although tooth salvage may be possible. [43][44][45][46] Chrcanovic and Gomez 35 cited a 11.8% recurrence rate in a large series of 170 cases. The general consensus is that when excised in its entirety, cementoblastomas rarely recur.…”

Evaluation of bone pathology within the head and neck region, particularly the gnathic bonesis is complex, demonstrating unique pathologic processes. In part, this variation is due to odontogenesis and the embryological cells that may be involved, which can contribute to disease development and histologic variability. As with any boney pathosis, the key is to have clinical correlation, particularly with radiographic imaging prior to establishing a definitive diagnosis. This review will cover those entities that have a predilection for the pediatric population, and while it is not all inclusive, it should serve as a foundation for the pathologist who is evaluating bony lesions involving the craniofacial skeleton.
