“…Osteomas can be classified as peripheral, central or extra-skeletal. Solitary peripheral or so called periosteal type originates from the periosteum, as in our patient (20). Solitary POs can occur at any age but are commonly observed in young adults without any gender predilection (1)(2)(3).…”

Osteoma is a benign osteogenic neoplasm originating from the continuous proliferation of compact and/or cancellous mature bone. The tumor can be classified as peripheral, central or extra-skeletal regarding location and it commonly seen in the cranio-facial region especially at the skull and paranasal sinuses. The exact etiology of the tumor is still controversial; however, it is considered that infection, trauma, muscle activity contributes the occurrence of the tumor. Due to the slow growing nature of osteoma, it is coincidentally detected on radiographs or when the tumor reaches a large size enough to trigger symptoms and cause facial disfigurement. Although mainly detected in the craniofacial bones, osteomas are rarely located in the jaw bones. The purpose of this review, is to present the diagnosis and treatment plan of a peripheral osteoma in the mandibular angulus region of an 8-year-old boy together with a review of published cases of peripheral osteomas of mandibular angulus.

“…Their growth is often relatively fast, as observed in our case, in which it presented a 2-year expansion on the left mandibular ramus of 48mm in height and 37mm in width. These osteomas are commonly associated with signs and symptoms, such as swelling, facial asymmetry, dysphagia, and respiratory disorders (Almeida & de Oliveira Filho, 2011;Tarsitano & Marchetti, 2013;Ata-Ali & Ata-Ali, 2019) and occur not only due to expansive growth, but also due to their association with the anatomical location. Due to the interdependence between the hard and soft tissues, the medial growth of osteomas in different mandible regions can compromise the UA in the distinct oropharyngeal regions (Dos Santos et al, 2020).…”

“…Giant osteoma treatment can be conducted by a conservative approach or with surgical management (Neville et al, 2009;Sadeghi et al, 2015;Ata-Ali & Ata-Ali, 2019) The current literature available to make this decision is scarce regarding the need for a dimensional assessment of the upper airway (UA). The relevance of this analysis is that bone mass growth can decrease the total airway volume and the maximum constriction area (MCA) (Tarsitano & Marchetti, 2013).…”

Giant osteoma appears as a benign nonodontogenic tumor of craniofacial and jaw bones with potential growth. This type of tumor affects different maxillofacial regions, thus requiring proper planning to resolve the patient’s esthetic and/or functional complaints. Medial impairment of the mandible can compromise upper airway (UA) dimensions, leading to respiratory disorders. However, to date, there is a lack of information in the literature about 3D UA imaging protocols for surgical planning. Accurate evaluation, elucidating the involvement of the upper airway patency, may demonstrate the need and urgency for surgical intervention. Therefore, our study aim report a case of a giant mandibular osteoma, associated with a sudden constriction of the oropharyngeal space that was assessed by a Computer Software. The UA was assessed all dimensions, and determining the surgical procedure. In follow up could observed an improvement of UA and patient complain. This study emphasizes the importance of the detailed preoperative assessment of giant osteoma to determinate the correct approach.

“…Osteoma is the term used to designate a benign osteogenic neoplasm, essentially restricted to the craniofacial skeleton, with a rare occurrence in other bones of the human body (Garcia et al, 2007;Starch-Jensen, 2017;Marcondes de Castro Rodrigues et al, 2019). This lesion is characterized by the proliferation of mature or spongy compact bone (Starch-Jensen, 2017;Ata-Ali & Ata-Ali, 2019) and is clinically well defined, and may have a sessile or pedicled base, usually asymptomatic and unitary, and which, depending on its location and size, can generate aesthetic changes associated with the occurrence of facial asymmetry and functional damage to phonation, occlusion and deglutition (Garcia et al, 2007;Starch-Jensen, 2017;Castro et al, 2020). This pathology can be classified based on the location of origin in endosteal when it originates from the endosteum (central region of the bone tissue), periosteal when it is originated on the surface of the bone tissue (periosteum), or extraskeletal when it develops inside the muscle tissue (Neville et al, 2016;Khandelwal et al, 2016;Marcondes de Castro Rodrigues et al, 2019;Castro et al, 2020).…”

Osteomas are benign osteogenic tumors, which clinically manifest as well-defined and asymptomatic lesions. This article aims to report a case of extensive osteoma in the mandibular branch, addressing the main tools used for diagnosis and treatment modalities. Patient L.M.S, 55 years old, male, sought the service of Maxillofacial Surgery, reporting the appearance of a nodule on the face with evolution of 2 years. On physical examination, a significant volumetric increase was observed in the pre-auricular region on the left side, asymptomatic on palpation and non-bleeding. Computed tomography was requested, which showed a hyperdense bone lesion in the mandibular ramus region. The planned surgical proposal was for extra-oral access in the pre-auricular region on the left side, excision of the lesion by osteotomy followed by osteoplasty for the regularization of the remaining bone tissue and suture by planes. Subsequently, the piece was sent for histopathological analysis that identified the lesion as a compact osteoma. The patient was followed up for 1 and a half years, through clinical and radiographic evaluation, through which an excellent bone repair was observed, with no signs of recurrence. Carrying out the clink exam is essential for the diagnosis of osteoma, as it is an asymptomatic pathology. Due to the fact that it has a low probability of recurrence and does not present malignancy, a conservative approach can be performed with the appropriate postoperative follow-up. Therefore, it is concluded that the performance of a thorough clinical examination associated with the imaging and microscopic information are essential for a good clinical management of this pathology.
