A case of peripheral odontogenic fibroma arising in the mandibular
premolar region of a teenager
Abstract
Peripheral odontogenic fibroma (POdF) is a rare, benign, and
ectomesenchymal tumor. We report a case of a 15-year-old girl who
developed POdF in the mandible. The lesion was resected, including the
periosteum. Histopathological findings revealed a small mass and
cord-like epithelium. No sign of post-operative recurrence appeared
after 16 months.
