A Rare Case of Desmoplastic Fibroma. Spontaneous Mandibular Regeneration with 3 Years Follow up - Case Report.

Desmoplastic fibroma is a benign, rare, but locally aggressive lesion. The intraosseous type rarely presents in the jaws. Desmoplastic fibroma represents the intraosseous counterpart of the soft tissue fibromatoses or desmoid tumor, affects predominantly young people with an affinity for the mandible. The aim of this article is to describe a rare case of spontaneous bone regeneration after resection of intraosseous type of Desmoplastic fibroma. We report a case of intraosseous Desmoplastic fibroma involving right body and ramus of the mandible of a 17 years old, male patient, that underwent surgical procedure by Risdon access to remove all lesion with 1 cm free margins and reconstructed with 2.4 mm plate. After 3 years follow up, spontaneous bone regeneration was found with no signs of recurrence of the lesion. In conclusion, cases of spontaneous bone regeneration after mandibular resection is rare and there are few studies and case report in the literature.
