Fibro-osteo-cemental lesions of the jaw bones are a heterogeneous group of diseases which present problems in classification. Psammous desmo-osteoblastoma is one of four newly proposed entities (Makek 1983) and has until now been characterized by its light microscopic, clinical and radiological features. On electron microscopy this tumour exhibits fibroblastic (preosteoblastic), osteoblastic and osteocytic cells and a globular mineralization unlike the mineralization of the psammoma bodies. Immunohistological investigations with anti-osteonectin, a bone specific protein linking mineral to collagen, showed positive intracellular staining in all tumour cells and extracellular staining in the osteoid. The psammoma bodies were, however, not stained. These results confirm the view of the osteogenic histogenesis of psammous desmo-osteoblastoma, with an osteogenic differentiation of the tumour cells, bone formation and association of psammoma bodies which are not of bone origin. This combination of findings supports the view that psammous desmo-osteoblastoma represents a new and distinct entity occurring in desmal preformed cranio-facial bones which should be incorporated in a revised WHO-classification.
