Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma case report

Introduction: Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma is a rare benign head and neck neoplasm that develops most commonly in children and young adults in the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses or the orbit. It can have a locally malignant character with a tendency to destroy surrounding structures. The treatment of choice is surgical removal of the lesion. Depending on the location of the tumor and surgeons preferences, it is recommended to use endoscopic or external approach, with the first one being the procedure of choice. Considering the risk of massive intraoperative bleeding, it is necessary to protect blood products before surgery. Case report: We present a case of a 41-year-old patient treated in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery of the Medical University of Warsaw.
