COFs occur more frequently in female patients and in those in the second to fourth decades of life. The most commonly affected site is the mandible, especially the molar region. The majority of COF lesions present as a well-defined, mixed lesion radiographically. Most COFs can be treated by conservative surgical excision without subsequent recurrence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
