Bone diseases Flashcards
Garre’s sclerosing osteomyelitis is also called:
1.Proliferative periostitis
2.Osteomyelitis with proliferative periostitis
3.Periostitis ossificans
Histopathologic picture of proliferative periostitis
1.Trabeculae of woven bone: arranged in parallel rows or retiform (interconnecting meshwork), often perpendicular to the surface.
2.Intertrabecular loose, vascular, uninflammed fibrous connective tissue.

Proliferative periostitis - differential diagnosis
1.Osteogenic sarcoma
2.Ewing sarcoma
3.Langerhans cell histiocytosis
4.Ossifying fibroma
Proliferative periostitis - Age
Children and young adults.
Average age: 13
Proliferative periostitis - clinical presentation
Non-painful swelling
Unilateral
Usually in the posterior mandible
Hard consistency
Proliferative periostitis - radiographic picture
Focal parallel radiopacities extending from the cortical surface
“Onion skin” appearance
Radiolucent area between original cortex and the newly formed bone layers
Proliferative periostitis - locations frequencies
- Inferior border of mandible
- Buccal cortex of mandible
- Lingual cortex of mandible
Proliferative periostitis - number of bony layers
1-12
Proliferative periostitis etiology
Reactive lesion:
1. Periapical inflammation
2. Periodontal inflammation
3. Buccal bifurcation cyst
Proliferative periostitis - time of bone remodeling
6-12 months after removal of cause (e.g. RCT)
Primary chronic ostemyelitis (PCO) and diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis (DSO): what is the etiology difference?
PCO: no association with dental infection; probably immunologic etiology.
DSO: associated with chronic dental infection.
