ABSTRACT

O mixoma odontogênico é um tumor benigno que acomete os maxilares, de rara ocorrência que tem origem a partir do componente ectomesenquimatoso de um germe dentário, seja ao nível da papila dentária, ao nível do folículo ou ainda ao nível do ligamento periodontal. Tem predileção pelo sexo feminino, podendo comprometer com mais significância a faixa etária da segunda à quarta década de vida. O tratamento dos mixomas odontogênicos pode ser conservador ou radical. Com relação à escolha do tratamento, deve o cirurgião levar em consideração principalmente a extensão do envolvimento da lesão. O tratamento conservador pode ser considerado como primeira escolha, evitando efeitos associados a morbidade, comprometimento de estruturas anatômicas nobres e diminuição da qualidade de vida. Por se tratar de lesão recidivante, métodos complementares de tratamento têm sido empregados, tais como osteotomia periférica, uso do nitrogênio líquido e a solução de Carnoy. Este trabalho teve como objetivo relatar um caso de mixoma odontogênico em corpo mandibular de paciente do sexo feminino, leucoderma, 25 anos, solteira, natural de Recife-PE- Brasil, tratado de forma conservadora através de curetagem, osteotomia periférica e uso de solução de Carnoy, que até o presente momento não ocorreu sinais de recidiva...

Odontogenic myxoma is a rare benign tumor that affects the jaws. It´s originates from the ectomesenchymatous component of a dental germ, either at the level of the dental papilla, at the level of the follicle or at the level of the periodontal ligament. It has a predilection for the female sex, being able to compromise with more significance the age group from the 2nd to the 4th. decade of life. The treatment of odontogenic myxomas can be conservative or radical. Regarding the choice of treatment, the surgeon must take into account mainly the extent of the lesion's involvement. Conservative treatment can be considered as the first choice, avoiding effects associated with morbidity, impairment of noble anatomical structures and decreased quality of life. As it is a recurrent lesion, complementary treatment methods have been used, such as peripheral osteotomy, use of liquid nitrogen and Carnoy's solution. This study aimed to report a case of odontogenic myxoma in the mandibular body of a female patient, leucoderma, 25 years old, single, born in Recife-PE- Brazil, treated conservatively through curettage, peripheral osteotomy and use of a solution of Carnoy, that until now there have been no signs of recurrence...

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Central giant cell granuloma is a rare osseous tumor affecting young patients with anatomical and functional compromise of the maxilla and mandible. Steroid injection therapy constitutes a less invasive treatment modality for disease control in selected cases. Retinal ischemia is a reported complication of multiple medical procedures, including dental interventions, and may lead to loss of vision with poor prognosis. We report a case of retinal arteriolar ischemic disease following central giant cell granuloma management with local injected corticosteroids.


RESUMO O granuloma central de células gigantes é um tumor ósseo raro que afeta pacientes jovens com comprometimento anatômico e funcional da maxila e mandíbula. A terapia com injeção de esteroides constitui uma modalidade de tratamento menos invasiva para o controle da doença em casos selecionados. A isquemia retiniana é uma complicação relatada em vários procedimentos médicos, incluindo intervenções odontológicas, e pode levar à perda da visão com mau prognóstico. Relatamos um caso de doença isquêmica arteriolar da retina após o tratamento com granuloma central de células gigantes com corticosteroides injetados locais.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate spiral CT and MRI manifestations of jaw odontogenic myxoma (OM). Methods: Totally 40 patients with OM confirmed by pathology were collected, and their CT and MRI manifestations were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The mean age of onset was (33.5±13.5) years. The lesions located in maxilla in 11 patients, while in mandible in 29 patients. CT showed expansive bone destruction in all 40 cases and cortical destruction in 8 cases. Most lesions were multilocular with vertical or angular septations oriented toward the periphery of tumor. The edge of lesions strengthened on enhanced CT. Adjacent teeth exfoliation was observed in 18 cases. Among 5 patients underwent MRI, 3 showed homogeneous equisignal on T1WI and 2 showed homogeneous slightly higher signal. T2WI presented high signal and interior low signal line-like separation. The edge of lesions strengthened on enhanced MRI in 2 cases. Conclusion: CT manifestations of jaw OM are of characteristics, which combining with MRI is of great significance in diagnosis of jaw OM.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is an uncommon benign fibro-osseous lesion that affects young individuals and deserves attention because it presents an aggressive clinical behavior and high rates of recurrence. This paper aims to report seven cases diagnosed as JOF - age ranging from 11 to 39 years - in a referral center, correlating our findings with clinical and pathological aspects in the literature. The mandible was the most common location, and in three cases, painful symptoms were reported. Regarding the histopathological findings, the majority of cases exhibited a cellularized pattern, and the trabecular subtype was the most commonly found. Regarding treatment, three cases relapsed, and, in two of them, conservative treatments were performed. Accordingly, knowing the clinical-pathological aspects of JOF is important for the correct diagnosis and the establishment of an appropriate treatment that decreases the high recurrence rate of this lesion.

ABSTRACT

El ameloblastoma a pesar de ser un tumor benigno es uno de los más agresivos y destructivos localmente de la región maxilofacial, siendo capaz de generar grandes deformaciones faciales en un corto lapso de tiempo, creciendo dentro del hueso sin perforarlo. La variante uniquística, por ser considerada la menos agresiva, permite un manejo conservador de esta patología. No es frecuente en niños y los criterios de tratamiento quirúrgico en la infancia son controversiales, debido, en parte, al riesgo de recurrencia cuando se practican métodos conservadores. Se presenta un caso inusual de ameloblastoma uniquístico localizado en la región anterior del maxilar inferior. Este tipo de lesiones se presenta mayormente en adultos jóvenes, principalmente en la segunda década de vida y en este caso se presentó en una niña de 12 años. La lesión fue manejada de manera conservadora con un seguimiento de cuatro años, siendo que esta no presentó recidiva.


Ameloblastoma is one of the most aggressive and destructive benign tumors locally in the maxillofacial region, it is able to generate large facial deformations in a short period. Within its classification, the unicystic variant is considered the least aggressive and allows a conservative management of this pathology. It is not frequent in children and the criteria for surgical treatment in childhood are controversial, due to the risk of recurrence when practicing conservative methods. An unusual case of unicystic ameloblastoma is located in the anterior region of the lower jaw. This type of lesions occurs mainly in young adults, mainly in the second decade of life and in this case, was presented in a 12-year old girl. The lesion was managed conservatively with a follow-up of four years, since it did not present a recurrence.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El ameloblastoma es una neoplasia benigna, que tiende a ser localmente agresiva, con gran tendencia a la recidiva. Es un tumor odontogénico de origen epitelial; el 80 por ciento de los casos se presenta a nivel mandibular, tanto en rama como en ángulo. Suele manifestarse durante la tercera a quinta décadas de la vida. Las características clínicas no son determinantes del comportamiento biológico y tampoco del pronóstico de un ameloblastoma, ni siquiera en muchos de los casos en los que se complementan con radiografías y/o muestras histopatológicas. Objetivo: Informar el manejo quirúrgico del ameloblastoma multiquístico de manera radical a través de una resección amplia y colocación de placa de reconstrucción que funcionó como mantenedor de espacio, debido a su inusual crecimiento rápido. Presentación de l caso: Se describe un caso clínico de un paciente de sexo masculino, quien presenta una lesión tumoral en rama mandibular derecha, con aspecto clínico de un ameloblastoma de tipo folicular, multiquístico, de crecimiento rápido, tratado en el Hospital Universitario del Caribe de Cartagena, Colombia. Se proporcionan datos sobre su aparición clínica como su rápida evolución, los hallazgos histopatológicos y el manejo terapéutico realizado. Conclusiones: Debido a su crecimiento rápido, para este caso en particular, la opción más factible fue llevar a cabo la resección total de la lesión con el objetivo de evitar o disminuir la posibilidad de recidiva, seguido de reconstrucción con placa de osteosíntesis para devolverle la funcionalidad a la articulación temporomandibular y al hueso mandibular, sin dejar a un lado la estética del paciente(AU)


Introduction: Ameloblastoma is a benign neoplasm that tends to be locally aggressive, with a high tendency to relapse. It is an odontogenic tumor of epithelial origin; 80 percent of cases occur at the mandibular level, both in branch and at an angle. It usually manifests during the third to fifth decade of life. The clinical characteristics are not determinants for the biological behavior or the prognosis of an ameloblastoma, even in many of the cases in which they are complemented with radiographs and/or histopathological samples. Objective: To report the surgical management of multicystic ameloblastoma in a radical way through a wide resection and placement of a reconstruction plate that functioned as a space maintainer, due to its unusual rapid growth. Case presentation: A clinical case of a male patient is described, who presents a tumor lesion in the right mandibular branch, with a clinical appearance of a multicystic, fast growing, follicular ameloblastoma, treated at Hospital Universitario del Caribe in Cartagena, Colombia. Data were provided on its clinical appearance, its rapid evolution, the histopathological findings and the therapeutic management performed. Conclusions: Due to its rapid growth, for this particular case, the most feasible option was to carry out the total resection of the lesion in order to avoid or reduce the possibility of relapse, followed by reconstruction with an osteosynthesis plate to restore the functionality of the temporomandibular joint and of the mandibular bone, without leaving aside the aesthetics of the patient(AU)

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN: El grupo de neoplasias malignas de tejido blando de la región de cabeza y cuello en pacientes pediátricos está representado por carcinomas, sarcomas, melanomas y tumores de diferenciación incierta. La neoplasia más prevalente en la población pediátrica es el Rabdomiosarcoma, seguido por el carcinoma de células escamosas. Los rangos de presentación son muy amplios, siendo los grupos entre 2-6 años y 15-19 años los que presentan mayor incidencia. Se ha planteado que la etiología de estas neoplasias es incierta. El tratamiento de estas neoplasias es comúnmente de enfoque multimodal, combinando un procedimiento quirúrgico con quimioterapia y radioterapia. El pronóstico y sobrevida del paciente dependerán principalmente del momento en que se realice el diagnóstico de la lesión. Un diagnóstico y tratamiento temprano favorecen las posibilidades de sobrevida y el pronóstico del paciente. Este estudio corresponde a la 3ra parte de "Cáncer bucomaxilofacial en niños". Se hará referencia a los distintos tumores malignos del tejido blando en la población pediátrica en el territorio de cabeza y cuello, abarcando sus generalidades, etiología, epidemiología, tratamiento y pronóstico.


ABSTRACT: Head and neck malignant tumors in pediatric patients comprise carcinoma, sarcoma, melanoma and tumours of uncertain differentiation. Within the pediatric population, the most prevalent neoplasm is rhabdomyosarcoma, followed by squamous cell carcinoma. There is a wide range in the presentation, and it varies significantly with age groups of 2-6 and 15-19 year-olds who present the higher incidence rates. For this reason, it has been suggested that the etiology of head and neck neoplasms remains unclear. Treating these pathologies usually involves a multimodal approach that combines surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Prognosis and survival rates depend mainly of the stage at the time of diagnosis. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve prognosis and survival rates. In this 3rd part of "Maxillofacial Cancer in Pediatric Patients", we studied a variety of malignant tumors in head and neck soft tissue from a paediatric sample. Specifically, we aim to analyze their etiology, epidemiology, treatment and prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Ressecção cirúrgica é um tratamento radical de algumas patologias que acometem a mandíbula e suas estruturas associadas. A técnica baseia-se na remoção total da lesão com uma margem de segurança em toda a sua dimensão, podendo ser ela marginal ou parcial. A escolha dá-se pela proximidade da extensão da lesão com a margem inferior da mandíbula. Em situações de ressecção mandibular parcial, remove-se parcialmente a margem inferior da mandíbula o que, posteriormente, dificulta a reobtenção da estética e funcionalidade do aparelho estomatognático, sendo a área reconstruída com uma placa de reconstrução óssea. A análise de elementos finitos (AEF) é uma forma de análise matemática, que se fundamenta na divisão de uma estrutura em um número finito de pequenas áreas, denominado de elementos finitos. A essa divisão dá se o nome de "malha". Em geral, a AEF possui a capacidade de modelar matematicamente estruturas, tornando-se possível a aplicação de forças em qualquer ponto e/ou direção. Dessa forma, conseguem-se dados sobre a deformação e o grau de tensão inicial, sendo possível, assim, representar situações in vivo, expressando condições compatíveis com o real. O trabalho visa analisar e simular as tensões geradas pelas forças mastigatórias, com o uso de elementos finitos, em simulação de uma mandíbula reconstruída com placa e parafusos de titânio, após sua ressecção parcial...

Surgical ressection is a radical treatment of some pathologies that affect the mandible and its structures. The technique is based on total removal of the lesion with a safe margin in all extension of the bone. Partial mandible resection results in a difficult to obtain the aesthetic and functionality of the stomatognathic system. In such cases, is recommended a titanium plate commonly used to mandibular reconstruction. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a form of math analysis which is based on division of a structure in a finite number of small areas. In general, FEA has the ability to mathematically model structures making possible applying forces in any point and/ or direction. Thereby, it can bring forth datas of displacement and tension being possible representing in vivo situation. This study aims to analyze and simulate the tensions generated by the masticatory forces, using FEA in a mandibular reconstruction with titanium plate after partial resection... (AU)

ABSTRACT

O ameloblastoma multicístico é uma lesão de origem odontogênica, que acomete, principalmente, pacientes entre a terceira e a quinta década de vida. Apesar de ser um tumor benigno, muitas vezes, apresenta-se com comportamento agressivo, o que pode exigir intervenções terapêuticas radicais. Casos de ressecções extensas podem representar a perda de uma grande porção de segmento ósseo, produzindo graves sequelas estéticas e funcionais, além da diminuição da qualidade de vida do doente. A reconstrução mandibular representa um importante estágio na reabilitação de pacientes submetidos à exérese de tumores extensos. A utilização de próteses de titânio se traduz numa alternativa confiável, mas ainda inacessível à grande maioria dos pacientes devido ao seu alto custo. Para tanto, o estudo de materiais alternativos viáveis se faz necessário. Nosso trabalho apresenta o caso de um paciente do sexo masculino, 56 anos, que compareceu ao ambulatório de CTBMF do Hospital da Restauração, com queixa de dor e aumento de volume em hemiface direita há mais ou menos dois anos, sendo submetido à hemimandibulectomia após firmado diagnóstico de ameloblastoma musticístico e reabilitação imediata feita por prótese personalizada, confeccionada em resina acrílica. As necessidades do paciente percebidas e o ganho em qualidade de vida foram analisados antes e após o tratamento por meio da aplicação do questionário "perfil de impacto de saúde bucal" (Oral Health Impact Profile - OHIP-14), por se tratar de um dos instrumentos mais amplamente utilizados na avaliação da qualidade de vida. A utilização de materiais alternativos na reabilitação de pacientes, como a resina acrílica, traduz-se numa alternativa segura, rápida e com menor custo, podendo levar ao paciente funcionalidade satisfatória, numa melhora considerável em sua qualidade de vida em todos os âmbitos.


The multicystic ameloblastoma is an odontogenic lesion that mainly affects patients aged 20 to 49 years. Despite being a benign tumor it often presents an aggressive behavior that may require radical interventional therapy. Cases of extensive resections may represent the loss of a large portion of bone segment, producing severe aesthetic and functional sequelae, in addition to a diminished quality of life for the patient. Mandibular reconstruction represents an important stage in the rehabilitation of patients undergoing resection of large tumors. The use of titanium prostheses is a clinically reliable alternative, but is still inaccessible to most patients due to its high cost. It is therefore necessary to examine the use of affordable alternative materials. This paper presents a case of a 56-year-old male patient who came to the outpatient clinic of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Hospital Restauração, complaining of pain and swelling on the right hemiface for about two years. The patient underwent a hemimandibulectomy following the diagnosis of ameloblastoma, followed by immediate rehabilitation with a custom prosthesis made of acrylic resin. The perceived needs of the patient, and the gain in quality of life were assessed before and after treatment using the questionnaire Oral Health Impact Profile - OHIP-14, because it is one of the most widely used instruments in the assessment of quality of life. The use of alternative materials such as acrylic resin in the rehabilitation of patients represents a safe, rapid and low-cost alternative option that may afford the patient a satisfactory functionality and a considerable improvement in quality of life in all areas.

ABSTRACT

Osteoma periférico é uma neoplasia benigna, com baixa taxa de recorrência. Sua incidência é rara nos maxilares e a mandíbula é mais afetada do que a maxila. Na maioria dos casos, é descoberto durante exames radiográficos de rotina. OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste trabalho é mostrar a experiência dos autores no tratamento desta neoplasia. MÉTODO: Em um estudo retrospectivo de janeiro de 2002 a dezembro de 2007 foram avaliados dez casos de osteoma periférico na região maxilofacial, tratados cirurgicamente por remoção completa da lesão, seguido de confirmação histológica. Nenhum dos casos estava correlacionado com a síndrome de Gardner. RESULTADOS: Nesta série avaliada, a incidência desta neoplasia foi maior no gênero feminino (1,5:1), com média de idade de 39 anos, sem predileção por faixa etária. Um dos pacientes apresentou recidiva da lesão após dois anos da primeira cirurgia, tendo sido submetido à nova intervenção, sem sinais de recidiva após três anos e seis meses de acompanhamento. CONCLUSÃO: O tratamento cirúrgico para o osteoma periférico é efetivo, com baixa taxa de recidiva.


Peripheral osteoma is a benign neoplasm, with low recurrence rate. Its incidence is rare in the jaws and the mandible is more affected than the maxilla. In most cases it is discovered during routine radiographic examinations. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to show the author's experience regarding the treatment of this neoplasm. METHODS: A retrospective study from January 2002 to December 2007 including ten cases of peripheral osteoma in the maxillofacial region which were treated surgically by removal of the lesion followed by histological confirmation. None of the cases were correlated with Gardner's syndrome. RESULTS: In this series the incidence of this neoplasm was higher in females (1.5:1) with a mean age of 39, without age preference. One of the patients had lesion recurrence two years after the first surgery, having been submitted to another intervention, with no signs of relapse after three years and six months of follow-up. CONCLUSION: Surgical treatment is effective for peripheral osteoma with a low recurrence rate.

ABSTRACT

Ameloblastoma is an uncommon odontogenic neoplasm that accounts for approximately 10 percent of all tumors originating from gnathic bones. Although its growth is localized, the tumor can also be infiltrative and persistent; however, its behavior is usually benign. The mandible is the most commonly affected site, and ameloblastoma is most frequently diagnosed between the fourth and fifth decades of life. In addition to a brief review of the literature, the present study discusses the clinical, imaging, histopathological and prognostic characteristics of these tumors by presenting two case reports. In these cases, the patients were aged 40 and 66 years, of different sexes and ethnicities and presented with the same complaint regarding localized and asymptomatic swelling. Both cases occurred in the posterior region (but on opposite sides) of the mandible. The patients were initially subjected to clinical examination and imaging of the face, followed by incisional biopsy to confirm (in both cases) the diagnosis of multicystic intraosseous ameloblastoma with a plexiform pattern. Both patients were treated by wide resection of the lesion (with safety margins), and only one patient experienced tumor recurrence. After 42 and 68 months of follow-up, the patients are still alive and show no signs of recurrence. Clinical and imaging findings aid in the differential diagnosis of ameloblastomas; however, histopathological evaluation is essential for its definitive diagnosis. Early diagnosis and precise detection of the borders to provide adequate safety margins during the surgical resection of the tumor are necessary to achieve successful treatment and recurrence-free survival for solid ameloblastomas.


El ameloblastoma es un tumor odontogénico infrecuente que representa aproximadamente 10 por ciento de todos los tumores que se originan a partir del maxilar y mandíbula. Aunque su crecimiento es localizado, el tumor puede ser infiltrante y persistente, y su comportamiento suele es benigno. La mandíbula es el sitio más comúnmente afectado, y el ameloblastoma se diagnostica con más frecuencia entre la cuarta y quinta década de la vida. Junto con una breve revisión de la literatura, el presente estudio analiza los datos clínicos, imágenes, características histopatológicas y pronóstico de estos tumores mediante la presentación de dos casos. En estos casos, los pacientes tenían entre 40 y 66 años, eran de diferentes sexos y grupos étnicos, que presentan la misma queja en relación con aumento de volumen localizado y asintomática. Ambos casos ocurrieron en la región posterior (pero en lados opuestos) de la mandíbula. Los pacientes fueron sometidos inicialmente a un examen clínico e imagenológico, seguido de la biopsia incisional para confirmar (en ambos casos) el diagnóstico de ameloblastoma multiquístico intraóseo tipo plexiforme. Ambos pacientes fueron tratados con amplia resección de la lesión (con márgenes de seguridad), y sólo un paciente presentó recurrencia del tumor. Después de 42 y 68 meses de seguimiento, los pacientes están vivos y sin signos de recurrencia. Los resultados clínicos e imagenológicos ayudan en el diagnóstico diferencial del ameloblastomas, sin embargo, la evaluación histopatológica es esencial para su diagnóstico definitivo. El diagnóstico prematuro y la precisa detección de las márgenes de la lesión proporcionan márgenes de seguridad adecuadas durante la resección quirúrgica del tumor y son necesarios para lograr el éxito del tratamiento y la supervivencia libre de recurrencia en los ameloblastomas sólidos.

ABSTRACT

O Osteossarcoma é uma neoplasia maligna agressiva, de origem mesenquimal, caracterizada por formação de osso irregular imaturo, produção de matriz osteoide e células fusiformes estromais malignas. É o tumor maligno primário mais comum do osso, responsavel por aproximadamente 20% dos sarcomas, sendo que 5% destes ocorrem nos maxilares. Os sintomas mais frequentes são o aumento de volume local, dor intensa e limitação funcional. Os fatores etiológicos estão associados às características do paciente (idade, sexo, raça, etnia, peso, altura) fatores genéticos e anomalias ósseas pre-existentes. O diagnóstico é obtido através de exames tomográficos e anatomopatológicos. O tratamento atual do osteossarcoma consiste em ressecção cirúrgica e quimioterapia complementar. O prognóstico desses pacientes melhorou nos últimos anos devido ao estadiamento adequado das lesões, acurados métodos de imagem e, principalmente, à poliquimioterapia. Este artigo descreve um caso de Osteossarcoma em indivíduo de 39 anos, gênero feminino, com grande lesão exofítica do corpo mandibular direito, assimetria facial e evolução de 3 meses. O diagnóstico foi estabelecido por achados clínicos, imaginológicos e histopatológicos. Conclui-se que é fundamental o tratamento cirúrgico precoce da lesão primária para minimizar seu comportamento recidivante e metastático.


Osteosarcoma is an aggressive malignancy of mesenchymal origin, characterized by irregular immature bone formation, osteoid matrix production and malignant spindle cell stroma. It is the most common primary malignant tumor of bone, accounting for approximately 20% of sarcomas, but only 5% of these occur in the jaw. The most common symptoms are local swelling, pain and functional limitation. The etiologic factors are associated with patient characteristics (age, sex, race, ethnicity, weight, height) genetic factors and pre-existing bone abnormalities. Diagnosis is obtained through CT scans and pathology. The current treatment for osteosarcoma consists of surgical resection and additional chemotherapy. The prognosis of these patients has improved in recent years due to proper staging of the lesions, accurate imaging methods and especially multidrug therapy. This article describes a case of Osteosarcoma in an individual of 39 years, female, with a large exophytic lesion of the right mandibular body, facial asymmetry and evolution of three months. The diagnosis was established by clinical, imaging and histopathology. We conclude that surgical treatment is crucial early primary lesion to minimize recurrent and metastatic behavior.

ABSTRACT

A calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) was first described as a separate entity in 1955 by Pindborg, and has since been referred to as Pindborg tumor. CEOT is characterized by the presence of squamous-cell proliferation, calcification and amyloid deposits, and accounts for only 1% of all odontogenic tumors. CEOT is a benign, though occasional locally invasive, slow-growing neoplasm. It is located either intraosseously or extraosseously, and is usually associated with an unerupted permanent tooth. A 24 year-old female visited our clinic, presenting with a palatal swelling and intra-oral ulcer. After an incisional biopsy, the lesion was confirmed to be odontogenic tumor. A tumor resection and reconstruction surgery with tongue flap were performed.

ABSTRACT

Odontomas são hamartomas de origem odontogênica, compostos pelos mesmos tecidos que formam o dente. Reconhecem-se dois tipos histológicos: complexo e composto. No tipo composto, os tecidos dentais dispõem-se como no dente, apresentando radiopacidade aos raios-x. O tipo complexo é uma mescla de tecidos odontogênicos maduros, não organizados. Odontomas são usualmente assintomáticos e de lenta progressão. Esse é o relato de um caso em que um odontoma composto estava causando atraso na erupção de um canino permanente.


Odontomas are defined as hamartomas of odontogenic origin. They are composed of all structures that form the dental tissues. Histologically, two types of odontomas are recognized: complex and compound lesions. The compound type is composed of tooth-like structures that can be seen radiographically as opacities. The complex type comprises a mixture of odontogenic tissues without dental organization. The odontomas are usually asymptomatic and slow growing lesion. This is a case report of compound odontoma causing delayed eruption of a permanent canine in a young patient.

ABSTRACT

O linfoma de células B acomete cerca de 90 por cento de todos os casos de linfoma. O aparecimento da lesão bucal deste tipo de linfoma é pouco comum e raras vezes se manifesta em região anterior de mandíbula. Neste relato de caso, o paciente de 22 anos, sexo masculino, com diagnóstico de linfoma de grandes células B em mediastino e pleura, após um ano de tratamento apresentou lesão nodular em região anterior de mandíbula, comprometendo os dentes incisivos inferiores. O diagnóstico histológico e imuno-histoquímico confirmou a forma secundária do linfoma. O paciente foi submetido a tratamento quimioterápico com regressão completa da lesão mandibular e está sob acompanhamento odontológico reabilitador.


B-cell lymphomas account for around 90 percent of all cases of lymphoma. The appearance of oral lesions with this type of lymphoma is uncommon but in cases where involvement is seen, the anterior region of lower jaw is most frequently affected. Here the case of a 22-year-old male patient is reported; he was diagnosed with large B cell lymphoma in the mediastinal pleura and after 1 year of treatment he evolved with a nodular lesion in the anterior region of the lower jaw involving the incisors. Histological diagnosis and immunohistochemistry confirmed secondary lymphoma. The patient was submitt.
