Cementifying fibroma of the frontal bone: a case report

Cementifying fibromas are rare fibro-osseous tumours that are usually found in the jaws. We report a 10-year-old boy who presented with a mass in the frontal bone causing frontal bossing and proptosis. The preoperative diagnosis was not clear despite computed tomographic and magnetic resonance imaging. The lesion was resected completely and found to be a cementifying fibroma. It was reconstructed at the same operation and he made a good recovery with no sign of recurrence.
