Central odontogenic fibroma in association with brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1.
We present a patient with bone abnormalities and a myriad of lesions secondary to his redeveloping renal failure and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). A 21-year-old male renal transplant recipient with NF1 presented with painless masses and large, irregular radiolucent lesions in the maxilla and mandible. After histologic examination, the lesion was diagnosed as a central odontogenic fibroma (COdF) in association with a central giant cell lesion, most consistent with brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism. The bone changes were interpreted to be highly suggestive of renal osteodystrophy. Around 30 cases of hybrid central giant cell granuloma-like lesion in association with central odontogenic fibroma have been reported. This, to our knowledge, is the first reported case of brown tumor in association with COdF. Our case provides further evidence of the giant cell component as the initiating entity in these hybrid lesions.
