Abstract EN

Desmoplastic Fibroma is a rare benign intraosseous tumor with locally aggressive behavior.

The mandible is the most frequent site of involvement.

It causes bone destruction with tendency to invade the soft tissues if untreated.

It has a high propensity for local recurrence if treated inadequately.

We report a case of Desmoplastic Fibroma of the mandible treated with wide margin of excision and immediate rib graft reconstruction, five years follow up revealed no recurrence.
