Abstract

Desmoid fibroma of the jaw in pediatric patients presents unique challenges in treatment due to its local aggressiveness and tendency for recurrence. The management approach typically involves the following strategies: surgery, observation or adjunctive therapies. We report a case of a 15 years old children with a desmoid fibroma of the jaw operate bye a hemimandibulectomy and reconstruction. The management of desmoid tumours is often surgical due to the risk of extension and recurrence and in children, the impact on growth and facial morphology must be taken into consideration.
