“…6 Because of the considerable difference between the recurrence rates of COP and JOF, it is clinically important to differentiate between the two entities for surgical planning and prognostic prediction. Although differentiation between the CT findings of JPOF and JTOF has already been reported, [6][7][8] we did not find any studies that compared the CT and MRI characteristics of the three histological subtypes, particularly between COF and JOF. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the CT and MRI characteristics of histological subtypes of head and neck OF with an emphasis on the differentiation between COF and JOF.…”

“…Indeed, fluid-fluid levels have been reported in OFs with secondary aneurysmal bone cysts. 8,10,[13][14][15][16] In a study, 15 out of 438 (3.42%) patients with OFs in the paranasal sinus showed fluid-fluid levels; the histological subtypes included COF in 10 patients (66.7%), JPOF in 4 (26.7%), and JTOF in 1 (6.7%). 13 However, in our study, fluid-fluid level was not observed in any OF.…”

“…CT used in conjunction with MRI improves surgical planning due to its superiority in spatial relations of the mass as compared with the surrounding bone (Owosho et al . ). This is similar to the images noted in this case with both CT and MRI performed to better define the mass.…”

Summary A 5‐year‐old Quarter Horse gelding presented to Texas A&M University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital with a several week history of bilateral blindness. Neurological deficits included an absent menace response and severe atrophy of the optic nerve head in the left eye (OS) as well as decreased vision in the right eye (OD). Advanced imaging consisting of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed a large mass in the base of the skull invading the sinuses and asymmetrically compressing the optic nerves rostral to the optic chiasm. Due to the size and location of the mass as well as severity of associated neurological signs, humane euthanasia was elected. Necropsy examination identified a large mass effacing the sphenopalatine sinuses and compressing the optic nerves. Histologically, the mass was identified as an ossifying fibroma (OF) and degeneration of the optic nerves was confirmed. As an OF in this location has never been described in a horse, this case demonstrates a new differential for blindness in horses.

“…Trabecular type is seen in a younger age group (8-12 years) than the psammomatoid variant (16-33 years) [3]. Internal calcified components are characteristic of trabecular type whereas psammomatoid variant usually presents as homogeneous ground-glass pattern [4]. Psammomatoid juvenile ossifying fibroma results from increased production of myxofibrous cellular stroma [1].…”

Background Juvenile ossifying fibroma is an uncommon benign fibro-osseous tumor commonly involving the craniofacial skeleton of young patients with locally aggressive behavior and a high recurrence rate. Depending on the site of involvement it can present clinically as nasal obstruction, facial swelling, or proptosis. Case presentation Here we present a case of juvenile ossifying fibroma with an aneurysmal bone cyst component in the left nasal cavity in a 15-year-old boy who presented with gradually progressing left-sided nasal obstruction. Imaging findings were consistent with juvenile ossifying fibroma. Endoscopic resection of the tumor was done, and histopathological examination revealed it to be a psammomatoid variant of juvenile ossifying fibroma. Here we discuss its imaging findings, differential diagnosis, treatment options, and histopathological features. Conclusion Despite being a slow-growing benign tumor, early diagnosis and treatment are necessary due to its locally aggressive nature and invasion of adjacent structures. Complete surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment because of the high recurrence rate.
