RESUMO
Angiofibromas located in the maxillofacial region are rare and almost exclusively occur in adolescent males. These benign tumors are highly vascular, locally invasive, and commonly found in the nasopharyngeal space. In the present report, we describe a very rare case of an intraosseous mandibular angiofibroma in a 23-year-old male patient with histomorphologic and molecular confirmation. This type of tumor occurring in the mandible has been reported previously only once, to the best of our knowledge.
