ABSTRACT
Cemento-ossifying fibroma is a slow growing benign tumor of mesenchymal origin. It is typically found in craniofacial bones, frequently involving the mandible and it tends to occur in third and fourth decade of life with predilection for women. Occurrence of this lesion in maxilla is a rare entity. We report one such case of cemento-ossifying fibroma of size 5x4 cm on upper left maxilla in 38 year old female patient which is an unusual presentation.
ABSTRACT
Epithelioid haemangioma (EH), synonymously termed as angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia, is a rare lesion whose etiopathogenesis is unclear. Clinically it manifests as solitary or multiple nodules in the skin and subcutaneous tissues of the head and neck region. It can also arise in the deep tissues such as muscle, bone and lymphnode. Intra oral involvement is less common and very few cases have been reported in the literature. Common intra oral sites include lip followed by buccal mucosa and tongue. Epithelioid Haemangioma affecting alveolar mucosa is very rare. We report one such case of epithelioid hemangioma of size 4x4 cm on lower right alveolar mucosa in 38 year old female patient.
