ch 14 Flashcards
What are 4 characteristics of benign bone neoplasms?
Asymptomatic:
Slow growing, cortex still there:
Symmetrical:
No metastisis:
What are characteristics of malignant bone neoplasms?
Destroys cortex, poorly defined margins, lays down bone outside the cortex.
Everything opposite of Benign neoplasms.
DON’T NEED TO KNOW!!!Osteogenesis imperfecta?
Is it inherited?
Defect in Type 1 collagen maturation
Most common inherited disease
DON’T NEED TO KNOW!!!What are symptoms of osteo imperfecta?
Bone fragile
Blue sclera
altered teeth (that look like dentinogenesis imperfecta)
DON’T NEED TO KNOW!!!What do osteo imperfecta teeth look like?
Blue to brown translucence, pulpal obliteration
Osteopetrosis? What causes it?
Increased bone density.
failure of normal osteoclasts
What does Osteopetrosis look like radiographically?
Radioopaque, can’t see through it.
Cleidocranial dysplasia?
syndrome with dental and clavicle abnormal
What happens with clavicle on cleidocranial dysplasia?
What happens with teeth?
small or no clavicle
retained primary teeth, impacted permanent teeth (lots of teeth)
Focal osteoporotic marrow defect?
What gender?
Biopsy needed and why?
Treatment required?
benign hematopoetic marrow defect radiolucency with trabeculations.
women.
Yes, only to differentiate between ameloblastoma.
No treatment required.
Idiopathic osteosclerosis?
Does it have a rim?
Which part of the mouth is it common?
Focal area of increased radioopacity, unknown cause, cannot be attributed to anything else.
No rim surrounding it.
Mandible.
What’s the difference between condensing osteitis and idiopathic osteosclerosis?
Condensing osteitis: associated with infection (carious, large filling)
Idiopathic osteosclerosis: virgin tooth no known causes.
Pagets disease of bone?
Does it affect more than one bone?
Does it cause pain?
disease with abnormal resorption and deposition of bone.
Yes more than one bone.
Yes it causes pain.
What are clinical manifestations of pagets?
Hat not fitting,
recent spaces between bone
Dentures don’t fit
When will hypercementosis associate with pagets disease?
when multiple teeth are involved
What does pagets disease of bone look like radiographically?
“cotton wool” appearance of the bone (looks wispy)
What will a pagets disease patient have high levels of?
What levels will be normal?
Serum alkaline phosphatase..,
calcium and phosphorus
What is something that pagets disease patients are likely to get?
Osteosarcoma
Are central giant cell granulomas neoplasms?
No
What is a central giant cell granuloma?
How is it discovered if it’s asympotomatic?
Nonneoplastic Anterior jaw midline lesion.
discovered by Xray
