We describe a 13-year-old boy with recurrence of an odontogenic myxoma of the mandible. We review the existing published literature on the lesion, emphasizing the similarities and differences among lesions in the differential diagnosis. Odontogenic myxoma is an uncommon benign tumor that mainly affects the mandible, with a peak incidence in the second to fourth decades of life and predilection for the female sex. Clinical, radiological, and histopathological features should be considered when making a diagnosis. Several of these characteristics overlap with those of other benign and some malignant tumors. Odontogenic myxoma is known for recurrence. The treatment plan should consider the age and sex of the patient and the site and size of the lesion. Reconstructive surgery may be required, but should be delayed until after an adequate follow-up to rule out recurrence.

“…Different types have different characteristics. 10 The treatment of the fibromyxoma is surgical and involves enucleation and curettage or block resection. Although small myxomas are generally treated by curettage, larger lesions require extensive resection.…”

Odontogenic fibromyxoma in the jaws is infrequent, slow growing, benign, locally aggressive tumor of ectomesenchymal origin with or without odontogenic epithelium and accounting for only 3%-6% of odontogenic tumours. Due to its variable clinico-radiographic characteristics and propensity for recurrence, correct diagnosis is required for adequate management. We present a rare case of odontogenic fibromyxoma occurring in the mandible of a 58-year-old female patient with a brief review of clinical radiological and histopathological features. We also emphasize the usefulness of Cone Beam Computed Tomography in the diagnosis of such lesions. Along with histopathology, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) may prove extremely useful in clarifying the intraosseous extent of the tumor and its effects on surrounding structures.
