Benign odontogenic lesions are rare entities but are very important due to their locally aggressive nature. Odontogenic myxoma is even rarer in children than in adults. There is no evidence in the literature in regard to the best treatment approach, in terms of conservative or aggressive surgery, for this type of tumor. This paper reports a case of odontogenic myxoma in a child treated with a compromised approach through bone osteotomies and a review of the literature about this disease, especially in pediatric patients.
良性牙源性病变虽罕见,但因其局部侵袭性本质而非常重要。牙源性黏液瘤在儿童中比在成人中更为罕见。就这种类型的肿瘤而言,无论是保守手术还是激进手术,文献中均没有关于最佳治疗方法的证据。本文报告了一例采用折衷方法(通过骨切开术)治疗的儿童牙源性黏液瘤病例,并对有关该疾病的文献进行了综述,尤其是关于儿科患者的文献。
