Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) is a rare benign odontogenic tumor.
Recurrence of COF is infrequently reported in scientific literature.
Accurate diagnosis and management are crucial for patient outcomes.

Observation:

This article details a unique case of a central odontogenic fibroma.
The tumor recurred 9 years following initial enucleation.
The recurrence presented challenges in diagnosis and management.

Findings:

The study emphasizes the rarity of central odontogenic fibromas.
Long-term follow-up revealed a late recurrence after surgical intervention.
Key clinical and histopathologic features are presented.
