“…Histologically, JOFs are lesions characterized by cell-rich fibrous tissue with giant cells and bands of cellular osteoid trabeculae. 5 The treatment of choice for such lesions is usually en block recession, but in this case through curettage and enucleation of the lesion was done and no signs of recurrence was observed.…”

Juvenile ossifying fibroma is a benign, but potentially aggressive, fibro osseous tumour of the craniofacial bones 1 . The authors describe a case of a juvenile ossifying fibroma of mandible presenting in a 17-year-old girl who was managed by enucleation of the tumour and followed up for a period of 10 months with no signs of recurrence. This paper also reviews the histology, clinical behaviour and management of this uncommon but disfiguring lesion.

“…Ossifying fibroma is an uncommon benign fibro-osseous lesion, which compromises 2% of oral tumours in children [8] [9] [10]. Fibro-osseous lesions are characterised by replacement of bone by formation of woven, lamellar bone with dense amorphous mineralisation [11].…”

Juvenile Aggressive Ossifying Fibroma (JAOF) is a benign but locally aggressive fibro-osseous lesion. It is a rapidly growing non-odontogenic neoplasm of the jaws, generally occurring in children and young adults. It is often confused with malignant condition because of its clinical behaviour. Long term follow-up is necessary, considering the high recurrence nature of this tumour. The reconstruction of affected patients, particularly the younger, is often challenging since it has to be done in stages, to keep up with the developing face. We report a case of maxillary JAOF in a 6-month-old female who was referred to our department. Histopathological examination of a resected specimen revealed a trabecular type of JAOF. The patient was followed up for a period of 2 years.

Summary A 5‐year‐old Quarter Horse gelding presented to Texas A&M University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital with a several week history of bilateral blindness. Neurological deficits included an absent menace response and severe atrophy of the optic nerve head in the left eye (OS) as well as decreased vision in the right eye (OD). Advanced imaging consisting of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed a large mass in the base of the skull invading the sinuses and asymmetrically compressing the optic nerves rostral to the optic chiasm. Due to the size and location of the mass as well as severity of associated neurological signs, humane euthanasia was elected. Necropsy examination identified a large mass effacing the sphenopalatine sinuses and compressing the optic nerves. Histologically, the mass was identified as an ossifying fibroma (OF) and degeneration of the optic nerves was confirmed. As an OF in this location has never been described in a horse, this case demonstrates a new differential for blindness in horses.
