pathology and diagnosis pt 1 Flashcards
Congenital or Developmental
Disorders scale
Aplasia of cranium
Faulty or incomplete development of the cranial
bones or mandible
most common developmental defect.
Lack of condylar growth is the most common
developmental defect.
is aplasia unilateral or bilat?
both
what other structure is often affected with aplasia
Auditory apparatus is often affected (i.e. Pinna of
ear deformed)
deafness can occur
occlusion with aplasia
Occlusal shift & deviation on opening may occur
aplasia occurenace and severity
Rare
More SEVERE than Hypoplasia !
Aplasia
defined? signs? common?
Lack of condylar growth is the most common developmental defect.
Occlusal shift & deviation on opening may occur.
Rare.
aplasia
Treatment of
Condylar Aplasia
can perform osteplasty on normal side to make sides equal if mild case
condylar and tmj replacements possible
Hypoplasia
defined?
Congenital or acquired?
Growth?
Condylar hypoplasia can be secondary to ?
Incomplete development/underdevelopment of the cranial bones or the
mandible.
Congenital or acquired (i.e. Treacher-Collins syndrome).
Growth is normal but proportionately reduced & less severe than in
aplasia
Condylar hypoplasia can be secondary to trauma.
Treacher-Collins syndrome:
signs
mandibulofacial dysostosis
1. Downward-slanting eyes
2. Notched lower eyelids
3. Underdeveloped midface
4. Deafness
Mandibular Hypoplasia:
High risk for?
High risk for obstructive sleep apnea
class 2 div 2
what landmarks can we use for man restro/prognathism
ala of nose and chin (WNL: equal in saggital plane)
Mandibular Hypoplasia sx tx?
Post-treatment with mandibular advancement surgery (bilateral sagittal
split osteotomy)
Condylar Hypoplasia
Unilateral or bilateral?
Congenital causes?
Acquired causes?
Unilateral or bilateral
Congenital: idiopathic, early onset
Acquired: forceps deliveries, trauma especially after jaw fracture, radiation, infection, circulatory disorder, endocrine disorders
Condylar Hypoplasia
Growth?
Condylar hypoplasia can be secondary to?
Growth is normal but proportionately reduced & less severe than in
aplasia
Condylar hypoplasia can be secondary to trauma.
what is happening
man hypoplasia secondary to trauma
Condylar Hypoplasia Clinical Symptoms
If unilateral:
Facial asymmetry
Limitation of lateral excursion
Mandibular midline shift
Hyperplasia:
* cranial bones or mandible.
* Congenital or acquired?
* cell numbers?
* Localized form?
* Mandibular prognathism?
Overdevelopment of cranial bones or mandible.
Congenital or acquired.
Non-neoplastic increase in the number of normal cells.
Localized: condylar hyperplasia
Mandibular prognathism – excessive size of mandible causing protrusion of chin but normal condyle size, shape, & function
sx tx of man prognathism
Osteotomy with rigid fixation with titanium plate & screws
Condylar Hyperplasia Clinical Symptoms
If Unilateral growth, it will cause:
- A progressive crossbite on the contralateral side
- Open bite in adults
