Clinicopathological study of Ossifying fibroma

Ossifying fibroma is a benign neoplasm of bone and often considered a type of fibro-osseous lesion. It can affect both the mandible and the maxilla, particularly the mandible. Radiologically it presents as a mixed radiodense and radiolucent lesion that is well demarcated from normal bone and histopathologically it consists of highly cellular, fibrous tissue that contains varying amounts of calcified tissue resembling bone, cementum or both. The treatment consists in completely removing the lesion with curettage, surgical excision or en-block resection, depending on the size and location of the lesion. The aim of this study is to analyse the clinicopathological characteristics of ossifying fibroma and provide a proper management system
