Odontogenic fibroma (OF) is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm that is most commonly found in the mandibular/
premolar region of female patients in the second to fourth decades of life. Well-defined radiolucent lesions that
may induce root resorption are normally observed. Rare variants of OF have been described in the prior literature,
including references to: 1) giant cell lesions, 2) amyloid-like protein deposition, and 3) ossifying variants. Immuno
-
histochemistry can contribute to understanding the biological behavior and the pathogenesis of OF. Therefore, this
case report aimed to describe a new case of ossifying OF and discuss the histopathology and immunohistochemical
features.
