ABSTRACT
The presence of swellings in the oral cavity in
pediatric patients may be indicative of a large
number of pathologies and systemic diseases;
some may even impair the childs wellbeing. The
desmoplastic fibroma is a locally destructive
benign bone tumor, listed as rare. A case of
a 4-year old boy with a two year developing
desmoplastic fibroma in the maxillae is
reported. Because of his age, it represents a
challenge for clinicians, and the approach
should be interdisciplinary, involving experts
in pediatric dentistry, oral surgery and oral
pathology. Every step of the diagnostic process
is described in depth, including clinical,
radiographic and histological findings.
