Peripheral odontogenic fibroma (POF), an extraosseous variant of the central odontogenic fibroma, is considered an uncommon benign gingival lesion with a small recurrence rate. Clinically, it mimics a variety of benign neoplasms, metastases and reactive lesions, but it is most commonly confused with the peripheral ossifying fibroma. In this report, we describe a healthy 32-year-old male who was seen with a recurrent POF of the right maxilla. The surgical excision site was repaired using a free palatal graft, leading to a favorable outcome in an esthetic region of the oral cavity.
外周性牙源性纤维瘤（POF）是中央性牙源性纤维瘤的一种骨外变体，被认为是一种罕见的良性牙龈病变，复发率较低。临床上，它可模仿多种良性肿瘤、转移瘤和反应性病变，但最常与外周性骨化性纤维瘤相混淆。在本报告中，我们描述了一名32岁的健康男性，他患有右上颌复发性POF。手术切除部位采用游离腭瓣修复，在口腔美学区域取得了良好的效果。
