Florid-cemento osseous dysplasia (fcod) an asymptomatic and incidental finding- a rare case report

Florid cementoosseous dysplasia is a benign, rare, multilocular & fibroosseous lesion of the jaw. It is commonly found in mid aged black women population, is generally asymptomatic, and is incidentally detected during routine radiological examination. In radiograph Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia clearly appears to be a form of bone and cemental dysplasia which is limited to jaw. In this pathology patients do not have laboratory markers or radiological imaging evidence of bone pathology in other parts of the skeleton. Radiographically, FCOD appears as lobulated dense masses, which are symmetrically found in various regions of the jaws commonly and involves the posterior mandibular segment. These bony lesions have anatomical demarcation as they are confined above the inferior alveolar canal.
