“…The pressure from the hema- toma causes venous stasis that leads to an area of bone marrow necrosis 2,15,26 and osteoclastic resorption attributable to decreased tissue pH. 27,28 In the mandible, trauma also might provoke a thrombosis or a lingering spasm of a terminal artery with ischemia and aseptic necrosis, thereby leading to cyst formation. Vascular alterations are supposedly related to the resorption phenomena.…”

Solitary bone cysts (SBCs) of the jaws are often polymorphic, show scalloped borders when located between the teeth roots, are devoid of an epithelial lining, and are usually empty or contain blood or a straw-colored fluid. The numerous synonyms referring to these lesions reflect their uncertain nature (eg, traumatic bone cyst, simple bone cyst). SBC, also found in other skeletal locations, is often suspected after epidemiologic and radiologic test results and confirmed at surgery. Histology usually shows fibrous connective tissue or only bone. The various etiologic elements responsible for SBC include tumor degeneration, trauma, or abnormalities during bone growth. The pathogenesis of the SBC is unknown, but it is widely accepted that it could be the result of a vascular dysfunction leading to a local posthemorrhagic ischemia, inducing an osseous aseptic necrosis. This article reviews likely but stilldebated etiopathogenic hypotheses of lesions of the jaws and other, more frequent bony locations, such as the humeral and femoral metaphysis.

“…[2] Mostly it has been diagnosed incidentally in orthopantomogram and the age predilection teens or early adult age with body of the mandible (75%) being more aff ected than the maxilla. [3] Usually, it is asymptomatic, but the pain is found in 10-30% of the patients and other infrequent symptoms include tooth sensitivity, paresthesia, fi stulas, delayed eruption of permanent teeth, displacement of the inferior dental canal, and pathologic fracture of the mandible. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] According to WHO Classifi cation of Head and Neck Tumours, 2005 TBC is classifi ed as a non neoplastic osseous lesion being not showing any epithelial lining, which distinguishes it from the true cysts.…”

Th e synonym for traumatic bone cyst (TBC) is solitary bone cyst, idiopathic bone cyst and is characterized as the presence of infectious bony cavity fi lled with fl uid and litt le quantities of tissue with no lining of epithelium. Typically these lesions show no symptoms and are detected coincidently while performing routine radiographic investigation for another purpose for which the patient reported. Usually, these cavities are found to be empty but occasionally may contain serosanguinous fl uid, clots, erythrocytes, fi brin, and giant cells. Of the jaw bones, this cyst is preferentially found more in the mandible than in maxilla. In this report, we present a case of asymptomatic TBC in the anterior mandible.

“…This corresponds to a frequency of 0.6%. 2 Howe 4 reported a review of 60 cases, in which the incidence of these cysts was greater in males and almost 78% of solitary bone cysts presented in the second decade of life. Solitary bone cysts of the jaws are usually detected as an incidental finding during a radiographic examination of the mandible and are not a risk to human life.…”

Arteriovenous malformation of the mandible — A case report

2006

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Both arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and solitary bone cysts of the mandible are uncommon lesions. The latter can be considered fairly innocuous but AVMs require careful management. The following is a description of a case where an arteriovenous malformation of the mandible presented with mental nerve paraesthesia. However, radiographically the features appeared to be consistent with a solitary bone cyst. It is important for clinicians in both a primary and secondary care setting to be aware that this type of lesion can have life threatening complications.
