This pathological entity affects more often children and young adult females, being found mainly in the gum. Clinically, the lesions appear as smooth or lobulated red nodules with easy bleeding, occasionally ulcerated. The present work aims to report a case of pyogenic granuloma, emphasizing the clinical and pathologic features important for diagnosis.

It is similar to an ossifying fibroma, although it is more aggressive and of earlier onset. The tumour mainly occurs in juveniles, majority of the patients being 15 years or younger. Radiologically as well as at surgery, the lesion is well demarcated from its surroundings. In this article, we report a case of juvenile ossifying fibroma of mandibular anterior region extending from canine to canine region with expansion of both buccal and lingual cortical plates with a history of 6 month duration in an 8-year-old girl. The treatment was complete enucleation of the tumour mass and curettage of the bony cavity with primary closure. The patient is on regular follow-up of 2 years with no recurrence.
