Abstract
Objective: To summarize published information about the desmoplastic fibroma of the gnathic bones into a descriptive analysis of the main features of this condition.
Material and methods: A systematic review according to the PRISMA guidelines was conducted. Electronic search was performed in four databases and in the gray literature. Case reports and case series were included. Frequencies were obtained for descriptive analysis.
Results: We identified 66 articles, for a total of 96 cases. Female patients (55.8%) in the first decade of life (40.6%) with a mean age of 18.2 years were more affected. The mandible was the most affected bone with 81.2% of the cases. The main clinical feature was painless swelling (54.2%). Most of the imaging examinations (radiological, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance) showed well-defined radiolucencies (65.4%) lesions. The treatment was surgical removal in all cases. The recurrence rate was 10.8% and all in the posterior mandible. Spindle cell fibroblasts in a collagenized stroma were often described in the histopathological features. Vimentin, smooth muscle actin, and β-catenin were common immunohistochemical markers.
Conclusion: Desmoplastic fibroma is a locally aggressive lesion that commonly affects the jaws in children. Histopathology is essential for diagnosis, and the pathogenesis of this tumor should be further investigated.
期刊介绍:
Oral Diseases is a multidisciplinary and international journal with a focus on head and neck disorders, edited by leaders in the field, Professor Giovanni Lodi (Editor-in-Chief, Milan, Italy), Professor Stefano Petti (Deputy Editor, Rome, Italy) and Associate Professor Gulshan Sunavala-Dossabhoy (Deputy Editor, Shreveport, LA, USA). The journal is pre-eminent in oral medicine. Oral Diseases specifically strives to link often-isolated areas of dentistry and medicine through broad-based scholarship that includes well-designed and controlled clinical research, analytical epidemiology, and the translation of basic science in pre-clinical studies. The journal typically publishes articles relevant to many related medical specialties including especially dermatology, gastroenterology, hematology, immunology, infectious diseases, neuropsychiatry, oncology and otolaryngology. The essential requirement is that all submitted research is hypothesis-driven, with significant positive and negative results both welcomed. Equal publication emphasis is placed on etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.
