J Craniofac Surg. 2009 Jul;20(4):1190-2. doi: 10.1097/SCS.0b013e3181acdcb2.

Abstract

Both the trabecular and the psammomatoid juvenile cemento-ossifying fibromas (COFs) are specific entities among the COFs being distinguished because of their age predilection, site involvement, and clinical behavior. A case of a large-size juvenile COF of histologic psammomatoid pattern is shown. The clinicoradiographic and histologic findings as well as the treatment strategy are presented and discussed.
