Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Ossifying fibroma (OF) is a benign fibro-osseous neoplasm which may be mistaken for other similar lesions due to overlapping clinical and radiological features. We reported a case of ossifying fibroma of roof of orbit in a 14 year old male patient which was a recurrence within the span of 2 years. The child came with the chief complaint of outward protrusion of right eyeball since 6 months. It was for the second time. It was slow in onset, protruded over the months to the present size and was not associated with the history of diminution of vision or pain associated with it. No history of trauma. The visual acuity of the patient was 6/6 in both eyes taken by snellen’s chart. The fundus was within normal limits in both the eyes. The color vision was taken and was normal. Perimetry was normal excluding any field defect. Firstly he was operated and the tumor was excised. CT scan report was suggestive of well circumscribed lesion causing cortical expansion with intralesion alround glass attenuation in roof of right orbit with extensions and proptosis of right orbit likely to be recurrence of ossifying fibroma. Treatment done was complete excision of tumor through orbital approach and reconstruction of roof of orbit under general anesthesia. Histopathologically, however, the lesion was interpreted as benign ossifying fibromas. Correlating the clinical, histopathological and radiological findings, a concluding identification of ossifying fibroma was given.
