Peripheral Osteoma of the Mandible: A Case Report

Abstract: Osteomas are benign tumors which are composed of mature compact or cancellous bone. They can be either peripheral, central or extraskeletal. The peripheral osteoma arises from surface of the bone (periosteal) whereas the central osteoma arises from the bone medullary (endosteal) and the extra-skeletal soft tissue osteoma usually develops within the muscle. Osteomas are most commonly found in the skull and facial bones. Multiple osteomas may be associated with Gardner’s Syndrome. These lesions are usually pa… Show more

“…Concerning the jawbones, the mandible is more frequently affected than the maxilla [ 3 ]. Mandibular cases typically occur in the angle region and condyle, followed by the ramus and the molar-premolar area [ 2 ].…”

“…It can develop in any bone but rarely affects facial bones. It is benign and has slow and generally limited expansive growth [ 1 , 2 ]. This tumor is the prevailing noncancerous growth found in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, and it is also the most frequent type of tumor in the frontal sinus [ 3 ].…”

“…De acuerdo a su ubicación, los casos más frecuentes se presentan en el cuerpo mandibular (región posterior); luego en el cóndilo, rama, apófisis coronoides y escotadura sigmoidea, sin embargo algunos autores han reportado casos en cuerpo anterior de la mandíbula, paladar duro y proceso alveolar ( 13 ) la mayoría de los osteomas en la región maxilofacial son unilaterales, y si se ubican en el maxilar superior el sitio más frecuente el proceso alveolar, los osteomas que se producen en el proceso condilar se pueden clasificar en dos tipos según su patrón de proliferación: los que proliferan y causan el reemplazo del cóndilo por el osteoma y los que forman una masa pedunculada u ósea en el cóndilo o cuello del cóndilo ( 12,15 ).…”

“…La forma central deriva del endosteum; la forma periférica, del periostio; mientras que la extraósea se desarrolla en las estructuras del tejido muscular. La variante periférica es la más común, pues afecta con mayor frecuencia los senos paranasales y rara vez se presenta en la superficie lingual y el borde inferior del cuerpo de la mandíbula ( 2,3,(13)(14)(15)(16)(17) ).…”

“…steomas are osteogenic benign lesions consisting of dense compact or cancellous mature bone with constant growth (1). Osteomas are commonly associated with the craniofacial bones, such as the ethmoid, frontal and maxillary sinus, compared with other skeletal sites (2). There are three varieties of osteomas-extra skeletal, peripheral, and central.…”
