Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia: a case report

Abstract: Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) has been described as a condition that characteristically affects the jaws of middle-aged black women. It usually exhibits as multiple radiopaque cemetum-like masses distributed throughout the jaws. Radiographically, FCOD appears as dense, lobulated masses, often symmetrically located in various regions of the jaws. Computed tomography, because of its ability to give axial, sagittal, and frontal views, is useful in the evaluation of these lesions. This paper presents the… Show more

“…However, this disease affects the bone of the entire mandible and shows loss of lamina dura, whereas FCOD is centered above the inferior alveolar canal. Paget's disease is often polyostotic, involving other bones such as spine, femur, skull, pelvis and sternum and produces biochemical serum changes, such as elevated alkaline phosphate levels (10). No biochemical alterations and other bone involvement were found in the case reported.…”

“…Le premier type atteint surtout des femmes d'âge moyen et d'origine africaine [1,2,3] ; les trois cas présentés appartiennent à ce type. Le deuxième type touche des sujets jeunes et la DO peut atteindre un volume important provoquant des problèmes fonctionnels et esthétiques [1].…”

“…Les fragments dentaires et osseux prélevés dans les trois cas ont été fixés dans une solution de formol tamponnée à 10 %. Ils ont subi une décalcification préalable avec le décalcifiant « PM histolab » sur une durée dedeux cas symptomatiques, la seconde attitude a été adoptée dans un second temps car il n'y a pas eu d'amélioration après une antibiothérapie de longue durée ; ceci étant probablement dû à sa faible diffusion dans les tissus sclérotiques [2]. En absence de séquestration, l'intervention chirurgicale est très difficile car la DO ne se détache pas de l'os sain en un bloc et il est nécessaire de réaliser un curetage important de l'os alvéo-laire qui se trouve en périphérie [19].…”
