Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) and osteoradionecrosis (ORN) are two similar bone pathologies in the jaw with different aetiologies. Actinomycosis is a relatively rare oral infection caused by the Gram-positive anaerobe sp. that normally colonizes the oral cavity. Actinomycosis is associated with the pathogenesis of both the MRONJ and ORN, as evident in our cases, and not just as a superficial contaminant. The clinical and histopathological aspects of the cases treated in our centre were also reported with a review of the literature. Clinical implication on the treatment of the cases was highlighted in view of the presence of this microorganism.
药物相关性颌骨坏死(MRONJ)和放射性骨坏死(ORN)是颌骨中两种病因不同但相似的骨病理状况。放线菌病是一种相对罕见的口腔感染,由革兰氏阳性厌氧菌放线菌属引起,该菌通常定植于口腔。如我们的病例所示,放线菌病与MRONJ和ORN的发病机制均有关联,而非仅仅作为一种表面污染物。我们还报告了在我们中心治疗的病例的临床和组织病理学情况,并对文献进行了综述。鉴于这种微生物的存在,强调了对这些病例治疗的临床意义。
