Abstract
Cherubism is a benign hereditary condition of the jaws, usually found in children by 5 years of age. Cherubism is a familial disease and presents an autosomal dominant trait with 100% penetrance in males and 50-70% penetrance in females. We present a case report of familial cherubism in a 20-year-old male patient.
