Exam 2: 2/27: Benign non-odontogenic tumors Flashcards
Coronoid hyperplasia:
rare developmental, osteoma or osteochondroma, esp male, uni or bi lateral, limits man move, painless, treat w coronoidectomy ro coronoidectomy
Condylar hyperplasia
uncommon, female:male:3:1, facial asymmetry, prognathism, cross + open bite, treat: condylectomy or osteotomy
TF? Both Condylar hyperplasia and coronoid hyperplasia:present w facial asymmetry.
F, only condylar hyperplasia
Bifid condyle:
rare, developmental, double headed condyle, usually unilateral, asymptomatic, may have pop or click of TMJ, no tx
Condylar hypoplasia:
underdeveloped condyle, congenital or acquired, syndromes (mandibulofacial dysostosis)
Condylar aplasia:
no development of condyle or ramus
Exostoses:
localized nodular bony protuberance, non-neoplastic*, developmental, very common, genetic or env factors, rarely symptomatic, single or multiple
How to name exostoses:
Buccal, palatal, torus palatinus, mandibularis, other sites: simple exostoses
More likely to be bilateral, buccal or palatal exostoses:
buccal
Buccal exostoses:
bilateral, max and/or mand, esp pos, male=female, 1/1000 adults
Palatal exostoses:
lingual of max tuberosities, bi or unilateral, 30-69%, esp males
Ddx, exostoses:
osteoma
Torus palatinus:
sessile, nodular bony mass along midline, 2:1 female, genetic? simple dominant? esp Asians and Inuits, 20-35%
Torus mandibularis:
sessile, single or multiple, nodular bony mass, usually bilateral, on lingual cortical bone, cuspid/ premolar area, female = male, esp Asians and Inuits, 7-10%
Histo of tori:
dense cortical bone, sclerosis, loss of marrow spaces
When to treat tori:
interfere w dentures, freq trauma, interfere w taking X-rays
Bony mass that may develop from alveolar bone rest bone beneath the pontic of a pos bridge:
reactive subpontine exostosis
2 variants of exostoses:
reactive subpontine exostosis, following skin graft vestibuloplasty gingival grafts
Osteoma:
benign neoplasm of mature compact or cancellous bone, 20’s-50s, 2:1 male, mainly craniofacial skeleton, inc jaw,
Osteoma on surface of bone:
periosteal osteoma
Osteoma that developed centrally within bone
endosteal osteoma
Osteoma that developed within muscle or dermis:
osteoma cutis
Osteoma cx ft:
asymptomatic unless in some locations, slow growing bony mass, body of man or condyle, paranasal sinus osteomas are more common than gnathic, can lead to asymmetry, solitary except w Gardner’s s, for sure dx must have hx of sustained growth
Most common location of osteoma:
premolar on L surface
RG appearance of osteoma:
well-c, sclerotic, RGO mass
Ddx, osteoma:
exostosis, complex odontoma, focal sclerosing osteomyelitis, osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma, ossifying fibroma
2 variant of osteoma:
compact w sparse marrow tissue, cancellous w abundant fibrofatty marrow space
Recurrence rate of osteoma following removal:
don’t recur
How to dx osteoma:
surgical excision
Tx for small asymptomatic osteoma:
periodic observation
Multiple osteomas is aka:
Gardner’s syndrome
