AGGRESSIVE FIBROMATOSIS OF THE NECK AND MANDIBLE; REPORT OF TWO CHALLENGING CASES
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PURE MEDICAL RESEARCH - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
We present our experience of two cases of rare connective tissue disease occurring within the midface. First case represented a very large painless slowly growing neck mass extending from mid neck to the clavicle displacing the trachea to the other side. Second case represented a painful mass in the right posterior mandibular region that had overgrows teeth. FNA and incisional biopsy did not conrm the diagnosis. A complete excision of the lesion with invasion of adjacent structure conrms the diagnosis of Aggressive Fibromatosis. Different modalities of the treatment will be discussed.
