Skeletal Radiol. 1996 Jan;25(1):96-9. doi: 10.1007/s002560050043.

Abstract

We report a case of MFH of the mandible in a 16-year-old girl. The mandible is a rare location of MFH of bone, with only 21 cases described in the literature. Clinical, pathologic, and radiologic features are discussed, with special emphasis on the unusual pathologic and radiographic features.
