RESUMEN
RESUMEN: El cementoma gigantiforme (CG) es una lesión fibrocemento-ósea benigna de muy baja prevalencia y de etiología desconocida que se presenta con mayor frecuencia en pacientes jóvenes y que se caracteriza por generar movilidad de dientes y asimetrías faciales importantes. Radiográficamente se expresa como una lesión mixta, con presencia de áreas radiopacas y algunas radiolúcidas, bien circunscrita, que se observa principalmente en la mandíbula. El CG se comporta de manera similar a otras lesiones de los maxilares, tanto en su clínica como en la histopatología, lo que podría dificultar y confundir su diagnóstico. Debido a su comportamiento localmente agresivo y deformante, el tratamiento sugerido es la resección de la lesión con márgenes de seguridad.
ABSTRACT: The gigantiform cementoma (GC) is a benign bone-fibrocement lesion of very low prevalence and of unknown etiology that occurs more frequently in young patients and is characterized by generating mobility of teeth and significant facial asymmetries. Radiographically it is expressed as a mixed lesion, with the presence of radiopaque and some radiolucent areas, well circumscribed, which is observed mainly in the mandible. GC behaves in a similar way to other maxillary lesions, both clinically and in histopathology, which could make its diagnosis difficult and confusing. Due to its locally aggressive and deforming behavior, the suggested treatment is resection of the lesion with safety margins.
RESUMEN
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is an autosomal dominant hereditary disorder of connective tissue, while familial gigantiform cementoma is a condition that usually manifests as multiple radiopaque cementum-like masses throughout the jaws. This case report discusses the oral management and prosthetic rehabilitation of two patients presenting familial gigantiform cementoma with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

Florid osseous dysplasia is a rare non-neoplastic and asymptomatic bone disorder involving the jaws. It is commonly seen in elderly females. Discovered on routine radiographic examination it manifests as radiopacities involving multiple quadrants. Microscopically, the lesion shows a fibroblastic proliferation along with irregular trabeculae of woven bone and cementum like material. Here with presenting two such interesting cases of this rare entity presenting in a family and associated with multiple impacted teeth.
RESUMEN
Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) has been described as a condition that characteristically affects the jaws of middle-aged black women. It usually exhibits as multiple radiopaque cemetum-like masses distributed throughout the jaws. Radiographically, FCOD appears as dense, lobulated masses, often symmetrically located in various regions of the jaws. Computed tomography, because of its ability to give axial, sagittal, and frontal views, is useful in the evaluation of these lesions. This paper presents the case of a patient who was diagnosed with FCOD on the basis of clinical and radiographic findings.
A displasia cemento-óssea florida (DCOF) tem sido descrita como uma condição que afeta tipicamente os maxilares de mulheres negras de meia idade, geralmente exibindo massas radiopacas semelhantes ao cemento, distribuídas nos ossos maxilares. Radiograficamente, a DCOF apresenta-se como densas masas lobuladas, frequentemente distribuídas simetricamente em diversas regiões dos maxilares. A tomografia computadorizada, que oferece vistas axial, sagital e frontal, é útil na avaliação dessas lesões. Este artigo apresenta o caso de uma paciente em que a DCOF foi diagnoasticada com base nos achados clínicos e radiográficos.
