ARDILA MEDINA, Carlos Martin  y  DUQUE SERNA, Francisco Levi. Juvenile trabecular ossyfying fibroma: presentation of three cases. AMC [online]. 2014, vol.18, n.4, pp.424-435. ISSN 1025-0255.

Background: juvenile trabecular ossyfying fibroma is a well-defined lesion from the clinical and histological points of view. It has been recently separated from other fibro-osseous lesions. Its biological behavior is defined but unpredictable. Objective: to describe three cases of juvenile trabecular ossyfying fibroma observed in the upper jaw. Diagnosis protocols and therapy are included. Clinical cases: three severe cases of juvenile trabecular ossyfying fibroma are presented. The clinical, radiographic and tomographic appereances are described. The histopathology, diagnosis and treatment are also presented. Conclusions: juvenile trabecular ossyfying fibroma is a very uncommon benign tumor that appears in young people. It is important to make an adequate diagnosis with the objective of differentiating juvenile trabecular ossyfying fibroma from other fibrose lesions; this allows early applying an adequate therapy.
