Osteomas are bone tumours arising from the cortical or medullary bones of craniofacial skeleton. Involvement of frontal bone and paranasal sinuses is more frequent than jaw bones. Jaw osteomas are slow growing benign lesions, which are usually asymptomatic or present as painless swelling. Those involving mandibular condyle are relatively rare and result in significant functional and aesthetic disturbances. This paper reports a case of solitary central compact osteoma of mandibular condyle in an adult Indian female patient. A comprehensive review of previously published reports is also presented.
骨瘤是起源于颅面骨骼皮质骨或髓质骨的骨肿瘤。额骨和鼻窦受累比颌骨更常见。颌骨骨瘤是生长缓慢的良性病变,通常无症状或表现为无痛性肿胀。累及下颌髁突的骨瘤相对少见,会导致明显的功能和美观障碍。本文报告了一例成年印度女性患者下颌髁突孤立性中央致密性骨瘤的病例。还对先前发表的报告进行了全面综述。
