Odontogenic myxoma (OM) are benign, locally aggressive tumours that are rarely found in the paediatric maxillofacial region. OMs derive from mesenchymal odontogenic tissue. We describe the management of a 3-year-old girl who presented with a large right-sided mandibular lesion. Her treatment included conservative excision, curettage and peripheral ostectomy. A literature review was performed which calls into question the dogmatic practice of resection with 1 to 1.5 cm margins. Treatment approaches to the OM could potentially be altered in the paediatric patient.
牙源性黏液瘤(OM)是一种良性、局部侵袭性肿瘤,在儿童颌面区域很少见。OM 来源于间充质牙源性组织。我们描述了一名 3 岁女孩的治疗过程,她右侧下颌有一个大的病变。她的治疗包括保守性切除、刮除和周围骨切除术。文献回顾质疑了 1 至 1.5cm 边缘切除术的教条式做法。OM 的治疗方法在儿科患者中可能会发生改变。
