Abstract
Juvenile ossifying fibroma is a rare, benign fibro-osseous tumour. In the light of a clinical case, the authors review the diagnosis, treatment and histological classification of these tumours. A seven-year-old child presented with a naso-orbito-ethmoidal trabecular juvenile ossifying fibroma. Complete surgical resection via a transfacial approach was performed after a preoperative work-up comprising head and neck CT and MRI. A review of the literature reveals that treatment of this aggressive tumour must comprise complete surgical resection via an incision determined by local tumour extension. Patients with juvenile ossifying fibroma tumour require long-term follow-up due to the high recurrence rate.
