Abstract

Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a rare type of fibro osseous lesion affecting the jaws of children under 15 years of age. We report a case of an 8–year–old boy diagnosed with trabecular form of JOF affecting the left maxilla with brief description about its histopathological differential diagnosis.
