A 46-year-old female patient with complaints of pain and swelling on right submandibular region and limitation on mouth opening was reported. She had undergone an unsuccessful surgical procedure under local anesthesia performed by a general practitioner for removal of impacted mandibuler right third molar 1 week earlier. On clinical examination floor of the mouth was tender to palpation. Panoramic and the periapical radiographs showed presence of a radiopaque mass similar to that of a tooth root. Computed tomography scans were obtained for detailed radiographic examination, thereby the presence of a high density area in the submandibular region was detected. Under general anesthesia the displaced root was removed and the postoperative course was uneventful.
报告了一名46岁女性患者，其主诉右下颌下区域疼痛、肿胀且张口受限。1周前，她在一名全科医生的局部麻醉下接受了拔除右下阻生第三磨牙的手术，但手术未成功。临床检查发现口底触诊时有压痛。全景片和根尖片显示存在一个与牙根相似的不透射线团块。进行了计算机断层扫描以进行详细的影像学检查，从而检测到下颌下区域存在高密度区。在全身麻醉下取出了移位的牙根，术后过程顺利。
