“…5 The differential diagnoses include fibrous dysplasia, cementoosseous dysplasia, condensing osteitis, Pindborg tumour and odontoma, all of which can be differentiated due to their characteristic radiological features. 11 Histologically, cementoossifying fibroma is usually composed of cellular fibroblastic tissue containing little or plenty of mineralized tissues-bone (woven and lamellar), cementum like material and dystrophic calcifycation. 12 The treatment is complete resection of the tumour as was performed in our case.…”

“…Embryonic nests and ectopic periodontal membrane are the aetiological factors, as recommended by Cakir and Karadayi for extraosseous variant where there is no periodontal tissue, as suggested by Elarbi et al in their cytogenetic studies 20. WHO classifies COF among non-odontogenic tumours derived from the mesenchymal blast cells of the periodontal ligament, which are pluripotent to form fibrous tissue, bone and cement or combination of such components.…”

Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a fibro-osseous lesion or non-odontogenic tumour that affects craniofacial bones. These lesions are included in the spectrum of fibro-osseous lesions arising from periodontal ligament cells, which can deposit combination of cementum and bone surrounded by fibrous tissue. It clinically, macroscopically and radiologically resembles complex composite odontome and can be differentiated only on the basis of histopathology. They usually occur solitarily as a painless and expansile spherical or ovoid jawbone mass that may displace the roots of adjacent teeth. They predominantly occur in females in third and fourth decades of life. We present a case report of a 20-year-old man, with a mildly painful swelling in the mandible which was successfully treated with enucleation and diagnosed as COF. Its resemblance to complex composite odontome and unique surgical approach are highlighted in this paper.
