O Adenoma Pleomórfico, é a neoplasia de glândula salivar mais prevalente, tendo sua maior incidência na glândula parótida, seguido das submandibulares e das salivares menores. O mesmo apresenta-se como um aumento de volume firme, indolor e de crescimento lento, podendo se desenvolver em qualquer faixa etária. Entretanto, é mais comumente relatado em adultos jovens e em adultos de meia idade (30 a 60 anos). O presente caso, visa relatar um paciente de 70 anos, do sexo masculino com o Adenoma Pleomórfico que os autores consideram raro devido à região ser no lábio inferior e ter um desenvolvimento de 35 anos da lesão.
Introduction: Tricho-dento-osseous syndrome is a ultra-rare ectodermal dysplasia related to genetic alterations in the DLX3 gene of interest to the health sciences due to its clinical manifestations. Aim: To synthesize the scientific evidence about tricho-dento-osseous syndrome, especially for dentistry. Methods: A bibliographic search was performed in the MEDLINE / PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus databases. A search strategy with descriptors was applied to all databases mentioned to reach scientific articles. The articles reached in all databases had their titles and abstracts read in search of adaptation to the proposed objective. There was no restriction on the year of publication, country or language. Literature review: Patients diagnosed with this syndrome have dental enamel defects and severe taurodontism, especially in the permanently lower first molars. In addition to these signs, other manifestations may be associated, such as curly hair, increased bone density and changes in craniofacial bones. The diagnosis of tricho-dento-osseous syndrome can be challenging due to the heterogeneity and wide phenotypic variation presented by patients with DLX3 mutations, since this gene is associated with several functions, especially related to cell differentiation and biomineralization. In addition, it is necessary to consider that other dental anomalies may be confused with tricho-dento-osseous syndrome, especially cases of imperfect amelogenesis associated with taurodontism. Conclusion: For dentistry, oral manifestations caused by this syndrome become relevant for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, although there are no clinical protocols for dental management of this patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
