Abstract
Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a benign odontogenic neoplasm. It is considered an ossifying fibroma with traces of interspersed cementum fragments. Here we present a case report of the occurrence of COF in the maxillary anterior region of an elderly woman. A 61-year-old female reported with a painless, progressive, slow-growing swelling on the upper front jaw region for the past five years. A single, localized, swelling on the anterior region of the maxilla which was non-tender and bony hard in consistency. Radiological examination consisting of orthopantomagram (OPG) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) revealed increased thickness of bone over frontal, parietal and maxilla with alteration of trabecular pattern - cotton wool/ground glass. Serum alkaline phosphatase level was found to be 865 U/l, however, serum calcium level and other routine blood investigations (hemogram) were within normal limits. The above radiological and laboratory findings are more in favour of primary bone pathology and with a biopsy later correlating with histopathological findings; it was diagnosed as COF. Under conscious sedation, surgical excision of the bony mass was done along with extraction of associated teeth. The patient is currently on regular follow-up and planning for a dental prosthesis is in progress.

Abstract
Fibro-osseous lesions are common in the paranasal sinuses. The incidence of fibrous dysplasia (FD) in the ethmoid sinus is rare. Patients with such lesions are usually asymptomatic until the lesion is large enough to start compressing adjacent structures and organs. Common presentations include nasal obstruction, headache, eye swelling, and diplopia. Meanwhile, less common signs can include decreased visual acuity. We present a case of a 65-year-old male with comorbidities who presented to the clinic complaining of a chronic nasal obstruction, headache, and decreased visual acuity in the right eye. On endoscopic examination, a lesion was identified in the ethmoid sinus. Computed tomography was performed and confirmed the positioning of the lesion within the ethmoid sinus compressing the optic nerve. Total excision was performed through a direct nasal endoscopic approach. The lesion was excised completely with no recurrence. Histopathology report confirmed the lesion to be of cartilaginous nature, and a final diagnosis of cartilaginous fibrous osteoma was made. Such lesions are usually benign and symptomless. Excising the lesion completely is the best approach to decrease the chances of recurrence.

Abstract
'Bullough lesions', also referred to as protuberant fibro-osseous lesions (PFOL), are rare temporal bone lesions initially described in 1999. Since only 12 cases have been reported, several key issues, such as their origin and recommended management strategies, remain unresolved. This article reports the largest cohort included in the literature to date, comprising four patients with PFOL. PFOL appears to be characterized by female and right-side predominance. These lesions were consistently located regarding the mastoid, generally diagnosed in early adulthood, without functional symptoms, and were always fibro-osseous. Invasive/malignant features were not found on imaging or histology. The main differential diagnosis was malignant low-grade parosteal osteosarcoma. Clinical examination and computed tomography images provided strong elements supporting the diagnosis of PFOL. Biopsy allowed molecular biology investigations (MDM2 and CDK4 amplification), in order to rule out low-grade parosteal osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Aims. Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibro-osseous neoplasm that most commonly arises in the ribs, femur, and craniofacial bones. We analyzed features of FD arising in the spine/short tubular/small bones of the hands/feet (STSBHF), specifically assessing for pattern of bone formation (conventional, complex/anastomosing, psammomatoid/cementum like), myxoid change, and presence of osteoclast-type giant cells. Materials and methods. A total of 1958 cases of FD were reviewed, of which 131 arose in the spine/STSBHF representing 2.5% of institutional and 10% of consultation cases, respectively. Eighty-six cases had material available for review. Anatomic sites included vertebrae (n = 58, 67%), short tubular bones (n = 20, 23%), and small bones of the hands/feet (n = 8, 9%). The most common morphologic pattern of bone identified was conventional (n = 77, 90%), followed by complex/anastomosing (n = 22, 26%) and psammomatoid/cementum like (n = 22, 26%). Eighteen cases (21%) had matrix-poor areas. Hypercellular areas were identified in 6 cases, 2 cases of which showed matrix-poor areas. Osteoclast-type giant cells were noted in 9 cases and myxoid change was present in 3 cases. Radiologic imaging studies available for 41 cases nearly all demonstrated features typical of FD, but the diagnosis was not predicted due to the unexpected location. Conclusions. FD arising in the spine/STSBHF is rare and frequently results in expert consultation. A significant number of cases exhibited less commonly recognized patterns of bone formation, and stromal changes including osteoclast-type giant cells, and matrix poor areas. Furthermore, imaging features in the STSBHF are often less specific. Awareness of the morphologic spectrum at these locations coupled with radiologic correlation should aid in accurate classification.

Abstract
Focal cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) is a benign fibro-osseous lesion of bone characterized by the replacement of normal bone by fibrous tissue and subsequently followed by its calcification with osseous and cementum-like material. It is mostly asymptomatic in nature and requires no treatment. When secondarily infected, it becomes symptomatic and intervention is required. Here, we report a case of symptomatic FCOD of mandible in a 52-year-old female patient. Histopathological evaluation of the biopsy specimen by ground sections and decalcified sections aided in the final diagnosis of the case.

Abstract
Background Osteoma of the paranasal sinuses are benign bony masses most commonly found in the frontal sinus. In the past, due to the anatomical complexity of the frontal sinus, these often required an open approach, but with the invention of angled tools and endoscopes, many rhinologists are now attempting endoscopic or combined resections. No large systematic reviews currently exist that describe the surgical management of frontal sinus osteoma. Objective To perform a systematic review detailing the surgical resection of frontal sinus osteoma. Review Methods: A systematic literature review was performed using PubMed, Embase, and Ovid databases. Data extracted included demographics, clinical presentation, radiologic, histologic findings, surgical approach, and recurrence. Results A total of 32 studies, with 477 surgically resected tumors, were included in the analysis. Sex data were available for 179 patients (M:F, 93:86), with a mean age of 43.2 years. All resected tumors presented symptomatically: facial pain/headache (80.2%), recurrent sinusitis (30.5%), mucocele (4.3%), cosmetic deformity other than proptosis (12.8%), and proptosis (5.5%). Transnasal endoscopic surgery alone was the most common surgical approach utilized (44.9%), followed by open osteoplastic flaps (36.9%) and endoscopic assisted (18.2%). Osteoma with anterior (79%) and posterior (73%) attachments were treated statistically more often with endoscopic approach compared with floor (42%) and extrasinus (50%) attachment ( P < .0005). There was no statistical difference in approach to masses that crossed the sagittal plane extending from the lamina papyracea (63% endoscopic, 29% endoscopic assisted, 8% open, P = .21). Mean follow-up was 29.7 months, with recurrence or persistent residual disease occurring in 12 patients. Conclusion Despite the increasing use of endoscopic alone procedures for expanding indications, patients may still require an open or endoscopic assisted approach for complete removal.

Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous disease of the bone, which is most commonly associated with congenital mutations in cAMP regulating protein Gsα coded by GNAS-1 gene. Often it is seen involving the craniofacial skeleton and can range from an asymptomatic monostotic form to polyostotic variant involving almost all the bones of the skull, thereby leading to functional and esthetic problems. This requires a continuous monitoring of the involved region throughout the life of the patient, even after the surgical interventions. We are presenting two cases of craniofacial form of fibrous dysplasia. One case shows monostotic form, while the other case shows features of polyostotic form of disease. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first two cases of craniomaxillofacial fibrous dysplasia from Nepal, which will be reported and published.

Abstract
This paper describes a rare case of fibrous dysplasia with cystic degeneration in the mandibular condyle. Diagnostic and therapeutic considerations are discussed. A 40-year old woman presented with pain near the region of her right ear. Physical and radiographic examination showed no abnormalities besides the presence of a mixed radiopaque/radiolucent expansive lesion of the right condyle. Pathologic examination showed high bone-turnover with bone formation. Bone scintigraphy showed a monostotic active fibrous lesion in the right part of the mandible. Bisphosphonate treatment did not sufficiently treat the patient's symptoms and physiotherapy to treat craniomandibular dysfunction as a factor in the pain was also unsuccessful. The patient later developed an acute external otitis due to a narrowed outer ear canal and had to be admitted to the hospital for treatment with intravenous antibiotics. Approximately two years after first presentation, resection of the affected bone (condylectomy) and reconstruction with a custom total joint prosthesis was indicated due to repeated functional deficits with considerable morbidity. Pathologic examination of the resected mandibular condyle showed increased bone formation including formation of neocortex and some cystic formation. This was diagnosed as fibrous dysplasia with cystic degeneration. Approximately two years after surgery, the patient functioned well.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To describe the presentation, treatment, and outcomes of benign fibro-osseous tumors involving the skull base in a pediatric population. METHODS Retrospective chart review from January 2002 to September 2013 of pediatric patients (ages 0-18 years) who underwent endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) for benign fibro-osseous tumors involving the skull base. RESULTS Fourteen patients were identified with an age range of 2.7 to 17.9 years (mean, 12.5 years). Six juvenile ossifying fibromas, five benign fibro-osseous lesions, two osteomas, and one fibrous dysplasia were treated. Ocular symptoms and nasal obstruction were the most common presenting symptoms in nine (64%) and six (43%) of patients, respectively; five (36%) presented with proptosis and four (29%) with diplopia. Two (14%) patients had cranial nerve VI palsy. Transsellar and transclival approaches were used in five (36%) of patients. Orbital and optic nerve decompressions were the most common components of the approaches performed in nine (64%) of the surgeries. Gross total resection (GTR) was achieved with single-stage surgery in 10 (71%) patients; two additional patients underwent staged GTR. Two intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks occurred and were repaired endoscopically. There were no postoperative CSF leaks or infectious complications. Two patients had transient diplopia, and two had transient diabetes insipidus, all of which resolved. The mean follow-up was 13.8 months. Two patients had a recurrence, and both required additional EES achieving GTR. CONCLUSIONS EES for benign fibro-osseous tumors of the skull base is a safe and effective treatment for excision of these lesions in the pediatric population. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4.

Abstract
Subungual fibro-osseous pseudotumour of the toe is a rare osseous soft tissue tumour of which only six cases have been described in the literature. We present a case in a teenage boy that posed an instructive diagnostic challenge and discuss the distinguishing features of the various differential diagnoses. The subungual location is very rare. For such tumours, radiology is as vital as histopathology in making a diagnosis and excluding neoplasia. Accurate diagnosis requires careful clinico-pathological and radiological correlation. These sorts of lesions may present to the dermatologist, not always the foot surgeon.

Abstract
Ewing's sarcoma is uncommon malignancy of childhood, frequently involving the mandible. The occurrence in maxilla is rare. It is histopathologically characterized by sheets of round cells positive for CD99. Although the prognosis is poor but early diagnosis and long term follow up can improve the survival. This article presents a rare case of Ewing's sarcoma of maxilla in a 15 year old male patient showing excessive fibro-osseous response which is not a frequent presentation. A retrospective analysis of cases of Ewings sarcoma of maxilla published in the English litreture is reviewed. In our case, diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemistry where sheets of round tumor cells were positive for CD 99. Ewings sarcoma of maxilla is a rare and aggressive tumor. Hence early diagnosis, combined therapy and long term follow up is suggested in such cases.

Abstract
The canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway is involved in the formation of craniofacial skeleton and oral tissues. Aberrant nuclear localization of β-catenin protein has been described in several human diseases including a subset of odontogenic tumors thereby suggesting an important role in tumor development. Fibro-osseous lesions of the craniofacial skeleton comprise several neoplastic, and reactive mesenchymal proliferations in which β-catenin status is unknown. To study this, we immunostained 171 fibro-osseous lesions for β-catenin protein and, for lesions with nuclear positivity, sequenced exon 3 of the CTNNB1 gene and exon 15 of the APC gene. Nuclear β-catenin immunostaining was detected in 34 (20 %) tumors with no correlation between nuclear positivity and either age, gender, or tissue decalcification status (p = 0.2, 0.17, 0.12, respectively). Absent nuclear β-catenin in fibrous dysplasia was the only diagnostically significant finding (p = 0.0034). A single point mutation at Asp56 of CTNNB1 was identified in one case of ossifying fibroma. A second ossifying fibroma and one desmoplastic fibroma demonstrated point mutations (Glu1317 and Glu1536, respectively [corrected] ) in the APC gene. These findings show that apart from fibrous dysplasia where nuclear β-catenin is rare, nuclear β-catenin staining has limited utility in discriminating among the craniofacial fibro-osseous lesions. The molecular mechanisms underlying nuclear β-catenin accumulation in the positive tumors is unlikely to be mediated by CTNNB1 exon 3 or APC exon 15 mutations in most cases.
