Solitary or bilateral, symptomless exostoses on the lingual surface of the mandibule are called mandibular torus. It is mainly seen in young males and has a benign clinical course. The etiopathology is not known. Both genetic and environmental factors such as the anatomy of the lower jaw are considered. Syndromes associated with facial exostoses such as Proteus syndrome or Gardner's syndrome should be clinically excluded. A 40-year-old man with exostoses of the jaw is reported. With this case report we would like to draw attention to a disease which has rarely been described in the German dermatological literature.
下颌骨舌侧表面的孤立性或双侧性无症状外生骨疣称为下颌隆突。主要见于年轻男性，临床病程良性。病因病理尚不清楚。遗传因素和诸如下颌骨解剖结构等环境因素均被考虑在内。临床上应排除与面部外生骨疣相关的综合征，如普洛提斯综合征或加德纳综合征。本文报道了一名患有颌骨外生骨疣的40岁男性。通过本病例报告，我们希望引起对一种在德国皮肤病学文献中很少被描述的疾病的关注。
