“…Traffic accidents are the commonest cause [1, 6, 7]. Diverse factors may be involved, including fullness of the stomach from a recent meal, localization of the trauma site in the left abdomen and inappropriate use of safety belts [5,6,7]. Morbidity and mortality in this condition have been related to delayed diagnosis, abdominal contamination and associated lesions [3, 5, 6, 8, 9].…”

“…Morbidity and mortality in this condition have been related to delayed diagnosis, abdominal contamination and associated lesions [3, 5, 6, 8, 9]. Mortality in the different series published ranges from 0 to 66%, however this depends more on the associated lesions than on gastric rupture itself [1, 6, 7]. …”

Background: Gastric rupture due to abdominal trauma is rare (0.02–1.7%); it is usually caused by traffic accidents. Delayed diagnosis, abdominal contamination and associated lesions cause morbidity and mortality. Patients and Methods: Retrospective review of 2,083 patients with abdominal traumatism treated at our center over 20 years. We reviewed recent ingestion of a meal, etiology, time to surgery, site, Stomach Injury Scale, abdominal contamination, treatment, associated injuries, complications and mortality. Results: Gastric perforation occurred in 25 patients (1.2%), median age 35 years. Stomachs were distended from recent meals in 16 (64%). The commonest causes were traffic accidents (n = 13) and blunt weapon injury (n = 7). The median time to surgery was 1 h. Gastric lesions occurred predominantly in the anterior wall (n = 12) followed by the greater curvature (n = 7). Type II lesions repaired with simple suturing were the most usual. Abdominal contamination occurred in all cases. Associated lesions were present in 22 patients; the most commonly affected intra-abdominal organ was the liver, and the lungs were the most affected extra-abdominal organ. The morbidity rate was 60% (n = 15) and the mortality rate 4% (n = 1). Conclusion: Early diagnosis and surgical treatment are important for reducing the morbidity and mortality in these patients.

“…While most investigators believe that DF represents the osseous counterpart of soft tissue fibromatosis, [8] others have classified it as a variant of nonossifying fibroma (NOF) of bone, [9] and considered it to be biologically intermediate between benign fibrous lesions and fibrosarcoma [10].…”

“…Desmoplastic fibroma is a locally aggressive lytic benign tumor of bone (1,53), with numerous cases involving children (34,38,43,45,57,59,60,70,73-75). Five such cases were found in the literature (56,62,68,79).…”

Intra-osseous fibromas of the jaw are classified by origin. Intra-osseous odontogenic fibromas have odontogenic epithelia, while desmoplastic fibromas do not. However, it is often difficult to determine the odontogenic origin for central fibromas. Three subjects with a diagnosis of intra-osseous fibroma were examined. Case 1 was a 35-year-old man found to have a panoramic radiograph from the right premolar to the mandibular ramus in the mandible that exhibited multilocular radiolucency. Within the radiolucency, small-radioopaque bodies were observed. Case 2 was a 13-year-old female, in whom a panoramic radiograph from the left premolar to the molar in the mandible showed multilocular radiolucency. Case 3 was a 51-yearold female who exhibited a heart-shaped radiolucency in the panoramic radiograph of the left first molar area in the mandible. We also reviewed the literature for previously reported cases of intra-osseous odontogenic and desmoplastic fibroma. In 64 cases of intra-osseous odontogenic fibroma and 68 cases of desmoplastic fibroma we extracted data on age, sex, location, and radiographic findings. Based on the analysis of the reported literature cases, re-evaluation of the patients in our study revealed that case 1 could be classified as desmoplastic fibroma, while cases 2 and 3 were intra-osseous odontogenic fibromas.
