Abstract

Osteoblastoma is an unusual neoplasm, usually found in the vertebral column and long bones of extremities. Maxillary involvement is extremely rare. We present a case report of benign osteoblastoma of maxilla affecting a 17 year old young male patient. The clinical presentation, radiological and the histopathological features as well as the treatment modalities of this unusual neoplasm are briefly discussed. Lastly an attempt is made to clarify the diagnostic dilemmas associated with this tumour with a hope to provide the best possible treatment for this rare neoplasm.
