Metastatic lesions of the jaws are relatively rare in relation to other pathological conditions of the oral and maxillofacial region. When present, they provide a diagnostic challenge and create a unique treatment role for the dental practitioner. The radiographic and clinical findings in patients with these lesions may mimic common inflammatory-infectious and posttraumatic conditions of the mouth and jaws. This review looks at the literature and clinical radiographic findings in patients with metastatic disease of the jaws. The role of the dental practitioner in the diagnostic and medical treatment phases is also discussed.
相对于口腔颌面部的其他病理状况，颌骨转移性病变相对少见。一旦出现，它们会带来诊断挑战，并为牙科医生创造独特的治疗职责。这些病变患者的影像学和临床检查结果可能与口腔颌面部常见的炎性感染性及创伤后病症相似。本文综述了颌骨转移性疾病患者的文献及临床影像学检查结果。还讨论了牙科医生在诊断和治疗阶段所起的作用。
