Ossifying fibromyxoid tumour is a distinctive mesenchymal neoplasm of uncertain differentiation which has a potential for local recurrence and metastasis.This case report represents the ossifying fibromyxoid tumour in mandible which is an uncommon site. OFMT needs to have early follow-up to detect local recurrence and metastasis. OMFT presents as a fairly circumscribed cellular neoplasm arranged in lobules with incomplete peripheral shell of woven/lamellar bone. Appropiate diagnosis of ossifying fibromyxoid tumour is important to recognize because, even though it has a low grade morphology, it can have aggressive behaviour with potential for recurrence and metastasis. Hence, the patient should be kept under strict follow-up.
