Abstract
Desmoplastic fibroma of the jawbone is a rare tumor. A case of suspected desmoplastic fibroma in a 24-year-old female was observed.
Radiological examination revealed a poorly-circumscribed lesion, and spotty radiolucent appearances were noticed.
For treatment, a portion of the tumor was resected from 5 of the mandible.
Histopathological examination revealed that the tumor was composed of dense collagen fibers and fibroblasts.
The prognosis was fairly good after surgical treatment, and there are no signs of recurrence at present.
