Abstract Aggressive psammomatoid ossifying fibromas (APOFs) represent a subgroup of related fibro-osseous lesions that appears to be unique to the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, and orbit.
Osseous, fibro-osseous, fibrous, and fibrocartilaginous forms have been described.
The term was further established by a comprehensive review of 112 cases selected from 3000 fibro-osseous lesions collected at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology during a period of more than 45 years.
