Compound Odontoma in Anterior Mandible-A Case Report.

ABSTRACT: Odontomas are the most common odontogenic hamartomas worldwide. Depending on the level of organisation of the tissues inside, these can be differentiated into compound type or complex type. As these are asymptomatic and do not cause any changes in the bone, they are often diagnosed during the routine dental examination. Complex odontomas are commonly found to occur in posterior mandible while compound odontomas are found in the anterior maxilla. A nine-year-old female child reported for a routine dental check-up, when a missing left permanent mandibular lateral incisor [32] was noticed. Further investigations revealed compound odontoma and unerupted 32, which is an unusual location. Early detection of these tumours is essential to avoid lengthy corrective treatments.

Marginal resection of solitary plasmacytoma in the anterior region of the mandible and dental implant rehabilitation: Report of an unusual case.

Project description:IntroductionPlasmacytoma describes a neoplastic proliferation of plasma cells affecting different groups of patients according to location, and may demonstrate heterogeneous tumor progression and survival rate. The present article describes a case of solitary plasmacytoma in the mandible.Presentation of caseA 57-year-old male smoker was referred to the oral and maxillofacial service with extensive injury, approximately 4-5 cm in size, involving the anterior inferior region of mandible. After confirming diagnosis of plasmacytoma through incisional biopsy, because it was a recurrent lesion, excision of the lesion was performed through marginal resection of the mandible under general anesthesia. During the same surgical procedure, a 2.4-mm system fixation plate was placed to mitigate the risk for pathological fracture of the mandible. In a second surgery, a region in the base of the mandible was rehabilitated using implants and prosthesis.ConclusionThe patient is currently undergoing clinical and radiological follow-up of 2 years with success.

ANEURYSMAL BONE CYST IN THE MANDIBLE (A Case Report).

Project description:Aneurysmal bone cyst is commonly seen in the long bones and vertebrae and is rare in the jaws. Its association with other lesions of the bone has been stressed by many workers. Because of its variable radiological appearance, diagnosis of the lesion is established by histopathological examination. A case of aneurysmal bone cyst occurring in the mandible is reported.

Giant Complex Odontoma of Mandible: A Spectacular Case Report.

Project description:Odontomas are considered as benign tumors of odontogenic tissue origin and are more over non-aggressive. They can also be categorized as hamartomas and are a result of developmental malformation of odontogenic tissues. As the name suggests, they are composed of mature tooth substances. They possess limited and slow growth potential and are well differentiated. They can be ectodermal, mesodermal or mixed in origin. Mixed variety may be further divided into compound or complex depending upon their radio-graphical resemblance to the tooth. Compound odontomes are reported to be twice more common than complex odontomes. Among them, complex odontomes are asymptomatic unless they cause bony expansion of the jaws.This paper aims to report and discuss a case of complex odontoma with unusually large size leading to gross facial asymmetry. Further this paper will highlight the important information the general dental practitioner must possess to diagnose such lesions at an early stage.Odontomas are benign odontogenic tumors with unusually large size leading to gross facial asymmetry. The general dental practitioners must possess the knowledge and important information to diagnose such lesions at an early stage.

Spindle cell carcinoma of the mandible: a case report.

Project description:Spindle cell carcinoma is a rare highly malignant squamous cell carcinoma. Here, we describe a case of a 74-year-old Chinese female who presented with a 2-week history of pain and swelling in the left retromolar region. Surgical resection and titanium plate prosthesis were performed and histological analysis revealed spindle squamous cell carcinoma.

Primary acinic cell carcinoma of mandible, report of a case and literature review.

Project description:Introduction and importanceAcinic cell carcinoma (ACC) is a rare low-grade salivary gland malignancy that accounts for approximately 17% of all salivary gland malignancies. The most common site affected by ACC is the parotid gland followed by the submandibular glands, minor salivary glands, and sublingual glands. Also, it could hardly be observed in unusual sites such as the jaw bones.Case presentationThis case is an example of a central acinic cell carcinoma in a 73-year-old man who came up with a painless gradual swelling for 15 months. Based on clinico-radio-pathologic findings, the diagnosis of a solid variant Intraosseous Acinic Cell Carcinoma was established. Subsequently, the patient underwent hemimandibulectomy and modified radical neck dissection, followed by postoperative radiotherapy. Within a six-month follow-up period, no evidence of residual tumor was found.Clinical discussionCentral salivary gland carcinoma is a rare entity and intraosseous ACC is more scarcely observed. Based on our findings, a total of 17 cases of primary intraosseous ACC have been reported so far. Etiology and clinical presentations of this tumor are still vague due to its rarity.ConclusionDentists and oral surgeons must be aware of such a rare malignant lesion when encountering a radiolucent lesion within the jaws. The early diagnosis and a complete surgical excision to achieve tumor-free surgical margins and a long-term follow-up could result in significantly improved survival rates.

Multiple chromoanasynthesis in a rare case of sporadic renal leiomyosarcoma: case report

Project description:Renal leiomyosarcomas (LMS) are extremely rare neoplasms with aggressive behaviour and poor survival prognosis. The most frequent somatic events in leiomyosarcomas are mutations in TP53, RB1, ATRX and PTEN genes, chromosomal instability and chromoanagenesis. By using chromosomal microarray analysis we identified monosomy of chromosomes 3 and 11, gain of Xp (ATRX) arm and three chromoanasynthesis regions (6q21-q27, 7p22.3-p12.1 and 12q13.11-q21.2), with MDM2 and CDK4 oncogenes copy number gains, whereas no CNVs or tumor specific SNVs in TP53, RB1 and PTEN genes were observed.
