Resumo: | Purpose: Gingival growths are one of the most frequently encountered lesions in the oral cavity. Most of these lesions are innocuous, but some do have malignant potential. Different lesions with similar clinical presentations make it difficult to arrive at a correct diagnosis. One of the infrequently occurring gingival lesions is peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF). Lesions with histological features similar to POF have been given various names, adding to the confusion. We report the varied clinicopathological features of 3 cases of POF, discuss the contentious nomenclature and investigate the possible etiopathogenesis of this disease. Case description: Three cases of gingival growths (POF) are reported. Two of the lesions occurred in the maxillary anterior region, while the third occurred in the mandibular posterior region. Two of the cases showed radiographic evidence of bone loss. An excision biopsy was performed in all three cases. Conclusion: Because the rate of recurrence for peripheral ossifying fibroma is 8% to 20%, close postoperative monitoring is required. It is also necessary to use consistent and specific nomenclature in the literature to avoid confusion and the loss of important data. |

A maioria dessas lesões são inócuas, mas alguns têm potencial maligno. Lesões diferentes com apresentações clínicas semelhantes tornam difícil um diagnóstico correto. Uma das lesões gengivais que ocorre raramente é o fibroma ossificante periférico (FOP). Lesões com características histológicas semelhantes ao FOP têm nomenclatura diferente, aumentando a confusão. Este artigo relata as características clinico-patológicos de 3 casos de fibroma ossificante periférico. Descrição do caso: Três casos de FOP são relatados. Duas das lesões ocorreram na região anterior da maxila, enquanto a terceira localizava-se na região posterior da mandíbula. Dois dos casos apresentaram evidências radiográficas de perda óssea. Biópsia excisional foi realizada em todos os três casos. Conclusão: Como a taxa de recorrência para FOP é de 8% a 20%, o monitoramento pós-operatório é necessário. Deve-se utilizar nomenclatura consistente e específica na literatura para evitar confusão e perda de dados importantes.EDIPUCRS - Editora Universitária da PUCRS2012-08-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/article/view/10108Revista Odonto Ciência; Vol. 27 No. 3 (2012); 251 - 255Revista Odonto Ciência; v. 27 n. 3 (2012); 251 - 2551980-65230102-9460reponame:Revista odonto ciência (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSenghttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/article/view/10108/8459Pal, SumonaHegde, ShruthiAjila, Vidyainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2013-11-11T15:47:02Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/10108Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/foPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/oai||odontociencia@pucrs.br1980-65230102-9460opendoar:2013-11-11T15:47:02Revista odonto ciência (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false |
