This document describes a case report of a peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) in a 22-year-old female patient. POFs are non-neoplastic reactive lesions of the gingiva caused by local irritants like plaque or food impaction. Histopathological examination showed fibrous connective tissue with bony trabeculae and dystrophic calcification, consistent with POF. Treatment involves complete surgical excision to remove the lesion and any remaining irritants in order to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Central Giant Cell Granuloma :
WHO has defined it as an intraosseous lesion consisting of cellular and fibrous tissue that contains multiple foci of hemorrhage, aggregation of multinucleated giant cells and occasionally trabaculae of woven bone
Etiology JAFFE (1953): considered this lesion to be a local reparative reaction of bone, possibly to intramedullary hemorrhage or trauma, hence the term reparative giant cell granuloma was accepted.
Charles A Waldron & W G Shafer (1966) suggested trauma be an important etiological factor in the initiation of the CGCG of the jaws
Thoma K H (1986) suggested that the lesion may be due to capillary injury caused by defective wall due to some type of trauma
J V Soames and J C Southam (1997) suggested that it could be a reaction to some form of hemodynamic disturbance in bone marrow, perhaps associated with trauma and hemorrhage REGEZI AND SCIUBBA(1999) :
Suggested that
Response to previous traumatic or inflammatory episodes.
This lesion is charecterised by proliferation of fibroblasts and multinucleated giant cells, in a densely packed stromaThe CGCG is a benign process that occurs almost exclusively within the jaw bones
CLINICAL PRESENTATION
Found predominantly in children and young adult
It has a female predilection (2:1)
Most commonly affected site is the anterior portion of the jaws, with an increased frequency of occurrence in the mandible
Majority of the CGCG of jaws are painless, expansion of bone is detected on routine examination
Few cases may be associated with pain, paresthesia or perforation of a cortical bone plate, occasionally resulting in the ulceration of the mucosal surface by the underlying lesion
Radiographic featuresCentral giant cell lesions present as radiolucent defects. Which may be unilocular or multilocular.
The defect is usually well delineated
The lesion may vary from a 5×5mm incidental radiographic findings to a destructive lesion greater than 10cm in size.
radiographic findings
A small unilocular lesion may be confused with periapical granuloma or cysts.
multilocular giant cell lesions cannot be radiographically distinguished from ameloblastomas or other multilocular lesions. Based on clinical and radiological features CGCG may be divided into two categories
- Non-aggressive lesion
- Aggressive lesion
The non aggressive lesion makes up most cases and exhibit few or no symptoms, they demonstrate slow growth and do not show cortical perforation or root resorption of teeth involved in the lesion. The aggressive lesions are characterized by pain, rapid growth, cortical perforation and root resorption and show marked tendency to recur when compared with non aggressive typeSoft spongy, brownish to reddish friable tissue of various size.
A specimen is usually coated with fresh or coagulated blood. Giant cell lesions of the jaws show a variety of features. Common to all is the presence of few to many multinucleated

Peripheral ossifying fibromas are benign mesenchymal lesions that usually arise in the anterior maxilla of young female patients. Histologically they consist of spindle cell proliferation with focal mineralization. We reviewed 48 specimens from 41 patients and recorded the clinical data, sex, and age of the patients, site, and size of the lesions, treatment, and postoperative outcome. Histologically the presence of mature, woven bone, cementum, and calcifications was evaluated and evaluated immunohistochemically. Lesions were more frequent in female patients in the third and fourth decade and were usually in the lower maxilla and smaller than 2 cm. All lesions were conservatively excised, and they relapsed in eight patients. Histopathologically, the lesions were poorly circumscribed, with moderately cellular proliferation, and with no discernible architectural pattern. All tumors showed some degree of mineralization, the presence of immature bone being the most common. Immunohistochemical examination showed staining of tumoral cells for smooth muscle actin and CD68. Lesions tended to occur more commonly in female patients, but one decade later than usually reported. We found a higher recurrence rate in lesions that contained cementum-like material but without bone formation, suggesting a lack of maturation in this group. Immunohistochemical results were consistent with myofibroblastic differentiation but they added no information about the behavior of the lesions.
Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a non-neoplastic enlargement of the gingival, which is one of the main
benign, reactive hyperplastic inflammatory lesions of the gingiva occurring in young adults. It has a very high
recurrence rate of around 7-45%. For this reason, a longer patient follow-up is very important in POF. Peripheral
ossifying fibroma comprises about 9% of all gingival growths. POF has similar clinical presentations with different
lesions which makes it difficult to reach at a correct diagnosis. In this article, we are reporting a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) in a 16-year-old female patient.

Abstract—This study was aimed to present a case report of a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma which is a rare case. This case was a 30 years non smoker male with the chief complaint of growth of gum tissue, moderately large in the mandibular posterior region. On intraoral examination, a peduncalated growth of 17 x 12 x 6 mm on marginal and attached gingiva with respect to tooth number 47 considerably hard in consistency and movable was seen. The lesion was erythmatous having a smooth non ulcerated surface. It was asymptomatic with no sign of pain. Intra oral periapical radiograph was taken which revealed slight erosion of crest of bone which was later confirmed during surgical excision. The possible reason of crestal bone erosion may be constant pressure of the growth. Differential diagnosis of irritation fibroma, pyogenic granuloma and peripheral giant cell granuloma was considered. However, clinical appearance and consistency was of a hard fibrous growth, which therefore led to a provisional diagnosis of peripheral ossifying fibroma or peripheral odontogenic fibroma.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

2. INTRODUCTION :
First description of ossifying fibroma was given by Menzel in
1872 while the term was given by Montgomery in 1927. It was
first described as relatively uncommon, solitary, nonneoplastic
gingival growth by Eversol and Robin.
Ossifying fibroma
- Central
- peripheral
3. • POF are reactionary lesion defined as any solitary growth
on the gingiva thought to arise from the PDL; most
commonly at the region of the interdental papilla.
• Exuberance of tissue is caused by an initiating factor
such as calculus, or a food particle that becomes lodged in
the sulcus ,creating an initial irritation.
4. CASE REPORT :
A 22-year-old female patient , with a chief complaint of
swelling on the upper front region of mouth since last 6
months ,the swelling was insidious in onset. Initially, it was
small peanut sized and progressively increased to present
size. Occasionally, it was associated with pain. Patient did
not give any history of trauma, injury, or food impaction and
there was no significant medical history.
5.
6.
7. • The gingival growth was nontender, firm to hard in consistency,
nonreducible, noncompressible and fixed to underlying structures.
No bleeding on probing was seen. Pathological migration and
midline diastema ,
? Pyogenic granuloma
? Inflammatory gingival hyperplasia and POF

COLLAGEN FIBERS INTERSPERSED WITH BONY TRABECULAE AND
AREAS OF DYSTROPHIC CALCIFICATION
12.
13. DISCUSSION :
POF – Gingiva , 1 st and 2 nd decade of life , Female ,maxillary incisor-
cuspid region ,pink to red ,slow growing asymptomatic ,firm to hard .
Trauma and chronic irritation from subgingival plaque and calculus
are considered to be the most common etiologic agent for POF. It is
thought to be originating from PDL.
Exclusively seen on gingiva mostly interdental, lesion are in close
proximity to PDL, within some lesions oxytalan fibers can be seen, and
fibrocellular response which is similar to other gingival lesions of PDL
origin.
14. • Pathogenesis is still unclear. Certain hypothesis that has been given
are - since these are clinically and histologically similar to pyogenic
granuloma, some author thought it to be originating secondary to
fibrosis of granulation tissue. Similarly, these have a high
predilection for female and the 2 nd decade of life hormones are
thought to play an important role. Most widely accepted hypothesis
states that the presence of local irritants such as plaque, calculus,
overhanging restoration, and ill-fitting denture can lead
inflammatory reaction which in turn leads to inflammatory
hyperplasia of cells of periodontium and PDL.
15. • Radio graphically, it appears as radio-opaque flecks or patches.
Sometimes, separation of the adjacent teeth and occasionally
resorption of the adjacent teeth may occur.
• Surgical excision is considered to be treatment of
choice.Recurrence rate of POF is high and varies from 7% to
45%.The lesion is removed from periosteum, and the adjacent
teeth should be scaled to remove any remaining irritants. This
helps in reducing the rate of recurrence. Furthermore, ill-fitting
dental appliance and rough restoration if any should be removed.
16. • Cases can be misdiagnosed as pyogenic granuloma, peripheral giant
cell granuloma, or odontogenic tumors, and therefore
histopathological examination is essential for accurate
diagnosis.Literature shows that most of the cases of POF have a
range of 1 st -2 nd decades, more common in females and maxillary
anterior region. Same were the finding of the present case.
Hormonal changes were thought to be main etiological agent for
the present case; however, minimal plaque could be seen in the
region. Therefore, along with surgical excision of lesion removal of
risk factor was considered as the treatment of choice.
17. CONCLUSION :
• A slowly growing soft tissue mass with speckled
calcifications in the anterior oral cavity of young adults or
children should raise a suspicion of a reactive gingival
lesion such as POF. Histopathological examination is
essential for accurate diagnosis. Once diagnosed, POF
should be treated by total excision to prevent recurrence.
