- females (2:1)
- anterior mandible
- yes, crosses midline
- Aggressive curettage
- good
Hyperparathyroidism…
- Causes inappropriate secretion of:

- Radiographically:
- “______” tumors
- parathormone
- parathryoid hyperplasia, parathyroid adenoma, parathyroid carcinoma
- renal failure (poor calcium retention and altered vitamin D metabolism)
- Loss of lamina dura and “ground glass”
- Brown
Hyperplastic response to bone in patients with poorly controlled secondary hyperparathyroidism related to end-stage renal disease:
Renal Osteodystrophy
Osteosarcoma…

Radical surgery
- 87%
- Direct extension of tumor, involving vital structures
How can metastatic deposits from malignancies below the neck affect the jaws?
Through Batson’s paravertebral plexus of veins which lack valves
Metastatic Disease…
- Area:

- 22%
- Palliation, usually with radiation therapy, anti-resorptives
- VERY POOR…most die within 1 year
Most common cyst of the jaws

the crown and the REE (reduced enamel epithelium)
- unerupted
- 3-4mm
- mand 3rd molar , followed by max canines
