Ch14 Bone Path (Part III) Flashcards
This is ridiculous…what are the 5 alternate names for Simple Bone Cyst?
1.Traumatic Bone Cyst 2. Hemorrhagic bone cyst 3. Solitary bone cyst 4. idiopathic bone cavity 5. unicameral bone cyst
Why is a simple bone cyst not really a cyst?
It lacks a lining, thus really a pseudocyst and not a true cyst
The trauma-hemorrhage theory for the cause of a simple bone cyst is that a ________ forms but does not organize and repair, just liquefies
hematoma
Simple bone cysts have been reported in almost EVERY bone in the body..but what are the two most common sites?
proximal humerous and proximal femur
What is the most common location of a simple bone cyst that shows up in the jaw?
marked mandibular predominance..PM, molar, and symphyseal regions
Simple bone cyst: age? gender?
young, peak in 2nd decade…no gender preference (extragnathic has male predilection)
What % of simple bone cysts in the jaw present with swelling?
20%
What is a HIGHLY SUGGESTIVE (but not clearly diagnostic) feature of a simple bone cyst on a radiograph?
scalloping between tooth roots
What may arise in conjunction with a simple bone cyst? What age and gender demographic is this most likely?
cemento-osseous dysplasia…older females
Simple bone cyst: in lieu of an epithelial lining there may be what 2 features?
- a thin vascular connective tissue membrane adjacent to the bone 2. a thickened myxofibromatous proliferation
Clinically, when opened 1/3 of simple bone cysts will be ______ and 2/3 will have _______
1/3 empty…2/3 small amounts of serosanguinis fluid
Interesting…How are EXTRAGNATHIC simple bone cysts treated? What is the recurrence rate?
aggressively: curettage, cryosurgery, decompression, intralesional steroid injection, bone substitiute/marrow injection/grafting…29% (range 12-48%)
How are simple bone cysts of the jaw treated? Recurrence rate?
surgical exploration and curettage, usually stimulates bone regeneration..1-2% (some report as high as 27%)
What increases the chance of recurrence for a simple bone cyst in the jaw? (2)
multiple cysts and assoc w COD
How long does it take for simple bone cysts to resolve post enucleation?
12-17 months post surgery
The ___________ is an intraosseous accumulation of variable-sized, blood-filled spaces surrounded by cellular fibrous connective tissue and reactive bone. Because the lesion lacks an epithelial lining, it represents a _______.
aneurysmal bone cyst… pseudocyst
What % of aneurysmal bone cysts form in association with other lesions?
20-30%
GENETICS for aneurysmal bone cysts indicate it is a neoplastic process…what gene is involved? Chromosome?
Ubuiquitin-specific protease 6 (USP6) (or Tre-2/TRE17)…Chromosome 7p13
Where are the typical site for ABCs? Age? Gender? What % of cases involve the jaws and what age?
long bones and vertebrae, pts younger than 30 then vertbre…no sex predilection (possible slight female predilection).. 2% and peak in 2nd decade
When an ABC shows up in the jaw, where is it most likely? Where does it not show up?
Common in ascending ramus and posterior body, but NOT in condylar or coronoid process
What is the MOST COMMON clinical manifestation of an ABC?
RAPID swelling (pain is variable, paresthesia, crepitus noted variably)
ABC: Radiographic buzzwords…
Balooning or “blow out” distension of the affected bone
ABC: Buzzword for clinical appearance during enucleation…
“blood soaked sponge” (venous-like bleeding)
ABC Histology: characterized by ______ that LACK ______…sourrounding these structures is fibroblastic tissue with what three features?
blood-filled spaces…lack endothelial or epithelial lining…giant cells, osteoid, and woven bone
What two entities are most commonly associated with ABCs when discovered histologically?
fibro-osseus lesions or giant cell granulomas
How long does an ABC take to heal post enucleation?
6mo to 1 year
What is the recurrence rate for ABCs?
13% (has been reported between 8-70% lol)
What are the 4 possible categories (not specific entities) of fibro-osseuos lesions?
- developmental (hamartomatous) 2.reactive 3.dysplastic 4.neoplastic
What are the three specific types of fibro-osseous lesions of the jaw?
1.Fibrous Dysplasia 2.Cemento-osseuos dysplasia (focal, periapical, florid) 3. ossifying fibroma
What TYPE of lesion is fibrous dysplasia?
developmental tumorlike condititon lol
