Abstract

An account is given of the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic, features of a special form of fibro-osseous lesion of the mandible. The material consists of fifteen cases (eleven females and four males). Two cases are described in detail. Together with Case 1, a probably unique series of radiographic pictures is presented, showing the development of the disease.
