The aim of this study is to analyze all the cases of benign fibro-osseous lesions treated at School and Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University, to compare the results obtained in this study with those previously documented by other authors. The 127 cases diagnosed as a fibro-osseous lesion were retrieved, and information about these lesions was documented. In all, 127 cases of benign fibro-osseous lesions were surgically treated. Of these, 55 were cemento-ossifying fibroma, 43 ossifying fibroma, and 29 fibrous dysplasia. Cemento-ossifying fibromas mostly occur in men of the second decades, mostly in the mandible. Ossifying fibromas had almost equal sex predilection and age distribution peaked in the second decades, mostly in the mandible. Fibrous dysplasia also had equal sex predilection, and age distribution peaked in the second and third decades, with equal occurrence in both jaws. The tumors needed to have a regular follow-up after the surgery.

Key Words: fibro-osseous bone lesions • cemento-ossifying fibroma • ossifying fibroma • fibrous dysplasia
