Within the limitations of a structured narrative review based predominantly on published case reports and case series, and constrained by the scarcity of molecularly confirmed cases, the available African literature on cherubism remains limited in scope, geographically skewed, and characterised by incomplete genetic reporting. Recurring features include delayed presentation, reliance on clinical diagnosis, and limited use of molecular testing. These observations reflect gaps in reporting and genetic characterisation rather than population-level patterns, underscoring the need for improved molecular diagnostics, multidisciplinary care, and African registries.
