ABSTRACT
En la actualidad, la principal causa por la que acuden los pacientes al odontólogo es el dolor dental, endonde la mayoría presenta un padecimiento pulpar o periapical irreversibles, que pueden estar asociados a factores traumáticos e irritativos. Sin embargo, pocosde ellos son asintomáticos, como la osteítis condensante que es escasamente mencionada en elámbito de la Endodoncia; por lo tanto, el objetivo de este caso clínico es el de proporcionar información acerca de la osteítis condensante siguiendo los lineamientos internacionales de Case Report (CARE). La osteítis condensante tiene una incidencia muy baja en pacientes y se debe diagnosticar correctamente al momento de tratar este tipo de lesiones con las diferentes herramientas de diagnóstico que se conocen. En este caso, se presenta un paciente del sexo femenino de 58 años de edad con un estado prediabético, que refiere un fractura del segundo molar inferior derecho, al cual radiográficamente se le encontróuna lesión periapical radiopaca en la raíz distal. Se muestra la secuencia del tratamiento, el manejo clínico y la rehabilitación.
At present, the main reason for patients to visit adentist is dental pain, where most of them presenta pulp or periapical irreversible condition, whichmay be associated with traumatic and irritative factors. However, few of them are asymptomatic as osteitiscondensing that is barely mentioned in thefield of endodontics. The aim of this case report isto provide information about the condensing osteitisfollowing international Case Report (CARE)guidelines. Condensing osteitis has a very low incidence in patients and should be correctly diagnosed with the different available diagnostic tools. In thiscase a 58-years-old female patient, with prediabeticstate, referred of a right lower second molar fracturewhich radiographically showed a radiopaque periapicallesion in the distal root of the molar. The sequence of treatment, clinical management and rehabilitation is presented.

Raine syndrome is a rare genetic disorder with characteristic features of exophthalmos, choanal atresia or stenosis, osteosclerosis and cerebral calcifications. Most of babies with this disorder die immediately after birth. We report a baby who was 7 weeks old at the time of presentation.

Osteopetrosis is a descriptive term that refers to a group of rare, heritable disorders of the skeleton. Osteopetrotic conditions vary greatly in their presentation and severity, from just as an incidental finding on radiographs to causing life-threatening complications such as bone marrow suppression. It is caused by failure of osteoclast development and function. Osteopetrosis can be inherited as autosomal-recessive, autosomal-dominant or as X-linked traits, with the most severe forms being the autosomal-recessive ones. The severity of the disease is mild to moderate in the autosomal-dominant forms, with normal life expectancy. Diagnosis is largely based on clinical and radiographic evaluation. The present paper reports a case of autosomal-dominant osteopetrosis complicated by osteomyelitis with a short review of the condition.

Se describen las patologías periapicales de los maxilares, para lo cual se expone una clasificación con fines didácticos tomando en cuenta el origen y comportamiento de dichas entidades patológicas. Se exponen la clínica, radiología e histopatología de las mismas con el fin de conocerlas y así poder llegar a realizar un diagnóstico diferencial correcto de ellas. Por último, se sugiere el enfoque terapéutico para cada una de ellas
