Therapeutic management of the odontogenic keratocyst. An energetic approach with a conservative perspective and review of the current therapeutic opt…
2020
Background Odontogenic keratocysts (OKC) are cystic lesions appearing in the jaws, usually asymptomatic with a progressive growth into the bone. Many of them are diagnosed by a routine radiological examination. Material and methods This study reports a 12-year-old girl that presented an asymptomatic large radiolucent unilocular lesion associated to the crown of 3.8 that caused displacement of the molar and the inferior alveolar canal. Differential diagnosis included OKC, unicystic ameloblastoma, ameloblastic fibroma, dentigerous cyst and orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst. Two surgical interventions were performed; first, a marsupialization, and 10 months after, the third molar extraction pl…
Giant deep lobe parotid tumor removal via total parotidectomy without mandibulotomy. A simple and safe technique
2021
The transmandibular route is often combined with the transparotid-transcervical approach when extensive surgical field exposure is required, as in the case of deep parotid lobe tumors measuring over 4 cm in size. This procedure implies great morbidity and prolongs surgery time. Furthermore, in cases where additional lip division is performed, the aesthetic outcomes may be poorer. A description is made of the technique used for the removal of giant pleomorphic adenomas of the parapharyngeal space, without mandibulotomy. Key words:Parapharyngeal space tumor, pleomorphic adenoma, transcervical-transparotid approach, transmandibular approach.
Dentigerous cyst with parietal and intracystic calcifications: a case report and literature review
2018
Background Dentigerous cyst appears surrounding the crown of an included tooth. On the radiographic exam, a radiolucent rounded well-defined lesion can be observed. Material and methods This study reports a clinical case of a 34-years old man with a pericoronal radiolucent lesion associated to an impacted lower third molar with the presence of radiopaque material inside. The radiological differential diagnosis was calcifying odontogenic tumor, adenomatoid odontogenic tumor and dentigerous cyst. The impacted third molar was removed and the lesion was sent for the histopathological exam. Results The histopathological diagnosis was dentigerous cyst with capsular calcifications. Specifically, p…
Bifid mandibular condyles: A systematic review.
2018
Background Bifid mandibular condyle (BMC) constitutes an extremely rare disorder characterized by a duplication of the head of the mandibular condyle. Its prevalence ranges from 0.31% to 1.82% in the published literature. Objectives The primary objective was to describe the main etiological, clinical and radiological characteristics of patients with BMCs and the existent treatment options. The secondary objective was to simultaneously include the characteristics of two new cases of BMC. Material and Methods An electronic search in Pubmed (MEDLINE), Scopus and The Cochrane Library was carried out by two independent reviewers until April 2018. Prospective or retrospective cohort studies, case…
