Conventional imaging showed an expansile radiolucent lesion involving the angle and the body of the left mandible. The lesion was curetted, and a miniplate was implanted at the excision site. Microscopic examination of the removed specimen revealed a cellular lesion characterized by a proliferation of uniform spindle-shaped cells in a vague but prominent storiform pattern, which represented the classic appearance of nonossifying fibroma. Three months later, radiography detected a fracture of the implantation plate. The area was re-explored with curettage of the soft tissue, which on microscopy demonstrated findings similar to the initial curettage findings. Follow-up radiology revealed satisfactory healing of the jaw, and no further recurrence was seen 2 years after the initial surgery. We present this case to highlight the importance of recognizing nonossifying fibroma in the mandible, which can be easily confused with more common mandibular lesions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/014556131509400620","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,9]],"date-time":"2019-01-09T15:10:42Z","timestamp":1547046642000},"page":"E41-E44","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Nonossifying Fibroma (Metaphyseal Fibrous Defect) of the Mandible in a 15-Year-Old Boy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"94","author":[{"given":"Abul Ala Syed Rifat","family":"Mannan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Mount Sinai St. Luke's and Mount Sinai Roosevelt, New York City"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"N.
