    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Pathology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a rare benign fibro-osseous lesion.
    • Multiple COFs are exceptionally uncommon, posing diagnostic and management challenges.
    • This report focuses on a unique case involving both the maxilla and mandible.

    Observation:

    • A 55-year-old Japanese male presented with symptoms related to jaw lesions.
    • Clinical examination revealed significant swelling and deformity of the maxilla and mandible.
    • Radiographic imaging demonstrated multiple, well-defined radiolucent and radiopaque masses.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of cemento-ossifying fibroma.
    • The lesions exhibited characteristic features of fibrous stroma with mineralized bone and cementum-like components.

  • Multifocal involvement of both upper and lower jaws was confirmed.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of thorough clinical, radiographic, and histopathological evaluation for diagnosing multifocal COF.
    • Understanding the behavior of multiple COFs is crucial for surgical planning and prognosis.
    • Further research into the etiology and potential genetic factors of multifocal COF may be warranted.
