Abstract

Fibro-bone lesions (LFO) are defined as a group of lesions characterized by the replacement of normal bone tissue with fibrous connective tissue, of variable cellularity, permeated by a variable amount of mineralized material, whose microscopic appearance may resemble bone, cement or a mixture of both. Among the injuries that make up this group, we can mention: fibrous dysplasia, ossifying fibroma, bone dysplasia and cemento-bone dysplasia. In this case report, we presented a mandibular reconstruction with free autogenous graft from the iliac crest, with the use of stereolithography prototyping, after the surgical treatment of a cemento-ossifying fibroma, as well as to describe the clinical, epidemiological, radiographic characteristics, and histological, the differential diagnosis and the form of treatment of the referred pathology.

Highlights

  • Fibro-bone lesions (LFO) are defined as a group of lesions characterized by the replacement of normal bone tissue with fibrous connective tissue, of variable cellularity, permeated by a variable amount of mineralized material, whose microscopic appearance may resemble bone, cement or a mixture of both

  • To contextualize the importance of the case report presented, we identified a total of six scientific articles that sought to describe this pathology clinically (Table 1)

  • In a study by Alsharif et al [7], with 127 cases of benign fibro-osseous lesions of the jaws, the FCO had an incidence of 43.30% and the group most affected was a man in the second decade of life
