Introduction: A young boy presented with mandibular swelling at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in Hospital Leforte, São Paulo, Brazil. Radiography showed a mixed bone lesion. Computed tomography (CT) findings were compatible with ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO). Case Report: An excisional biopsy was performed under general anesthesia. At the 6-year follow-up, local inflammation and mild exudates were found. Local recurrence of the lesion was observed on CT. Therefore, excision and curettage were performed. No signs of recurrence have been detected to date. Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare benign neoplasm most commonly occurring in the first decade of life, with minimal probability of malignancy. Conclusion: Clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings aid in the diagnosis, and long-term follow-up is necessary as recurrence can develop even after 6 postoperative years.

Orbital trapdoor fractures are characterized by tissue entrapment between the fractured bone fragment and the remnant of the orbital floor. This entrapment can result in immediate local and systemic complications and poor outcomes when approached late. This article presents the case of an orbital floor fracture in a child with dystopia, pain, edema and entrapment of the inferior rectus muscle and consequent limitation of ocular motility. The strategy proposed in the early approach to orbital floor reconstruction and release of incarcerated tissue allowed the patient to achieve satisfactory results without morbidity, as compared to the outcomes of corrective sequel surgery.

Osteoma is the most frequent benign tumor in the craniomaxillofacial region. The most common initial manifestation is facial pressure or headache. The clinical examination showed increased volume in the right supraorbital region, asymmetry of the orbital contour, exophthalmia, dystopia, proptosis and clinical restraint of ocular movement for supraversion. The lesion measured approximately 4 cm in diameter with irregular contour. Osteotomy was performed with saw surrounding the tumor, with aid of a surgical piezo on the orbital medial wall. The result of histopathological examination was osteoma. The patient is 2.5 years postoperatively and so far without complications.
