Fibrocementoma is a bone neoplasia wich has brought about controversies as to the terminology and dignostic criteria. At these moments it represents a defined entity that can be put apart from fibrous bone dysplasias and other osteofibrous lesions wich are real neoplasias. We present a 42 years old, masculine white race patient a history of arterial hypertension. In his initial physical examination a volume increase is observed in the right mandibular zone wich develops from the molar region to the canine zone of duropetrosal consistency. Radiographically, a well-defined wide osteolytic image is observed with displacement of tooth and expansion of oseous corticals. When performing previous biopsy, the diagnosis is confirmed by histophatologic study. The clinical and radiographical evolution after one year of intervention is successful. This is the first case of this entity reported in this province and the second one in Cuba.
