Will ossifying fibroma heal on its own?

In life, some tumor diseases are relatively common, such as ossifying fibroma, which is a very common benign tumor disease of the jaw with relatively clear boundaries. Ossifying fibroma is also called fibroosteoma, which is mainly named after the ratio of fiber components and bone components. So, can ossifying fibroma heal itself?

Whether ossifying fibroma can heal itself depends on the individual. Because ossifying fibroma of long bones may heal itself if it occurs before the age of five, and the recurrence rate after surgical treatment is very high. Therefore, if ossifying fibroma occurs before the age of five, surgical resection should not be performed. For children between five and ten years old, the decision should be made based on the specific situation. The surgical method should be delayed as much as possible. Most pathological fractures do not require surgical treatment. Surgery is mainly for cases with large lesions or weakened bone strength. The periosteum can be exposed and the tangent position can be removed. Tibial pseudoarthrosis can be connected with strong bones and high-stress bone transplants can be used. In addition, if the tibial curvature is more severe, osteotomy can be performed after the age of ten to twelve.

It should be known that ossifying fibroma is a true tumor, so in principle it needs to be treated by surgical resection. In addition, patients also need to eliminate worries, avoid tension and fear, and eat high-calorie, high-protein and high-vitamin foods to ensure adequate nutritional supply and improve the tissue repair ability.

Can ossifying fibroma heal itself? Not all diseases require clinical treatment to be cured. Some diseases can heal themselves, even tumors. However, the specific situation depends on the circumstances. In the case of ossifying fibroma, it is possible to heal itself before the age of five.
