“…The peripheral osteoma occurs mostly in frontal, ethmoidal and maxillary sinus [3][4][5]8]. Other documented craniofacial sites include external auditory canal, orbit, temporal bone, zygomatic arch, pterygoid plates and rarely jaws [6,8,12,13]. There is greater occurrence in mandible than maxilla [2,4,8].…”

An osteoma is a benign, slow growing osteogenic tumor characterized by proliferation of either compact or cancellous bone. It can be central, peripheral or extraskeletal. Clinically osteomas are usually asymptomatic. These lesions often go undetected unless incidentally found on radiographic survey or until they have extended to such an extent that they cause facial asymmetry or functional impairment. The most common site of osteoma to develop in maxillofacial region is skull. Giant osteomas in mandible are rare. We present and discuss a case of giant osteoma of right mandible which was surgically excised.

“…The other bone tumors that occasionally affect sphenoid bone include osteoma Osteoblastoma, aneurysmal bone cyst, giant cell tumor, giant cell reparative granuloma, primary Ewing' sarcoma, primary osteosarcoma, myxoid chondrosarcoma and metastases. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Meningioma involving the sphenoid usually presents as sheat like mass (meningioma enplaque) and produces hyperosteosis of underlying bone. 13,14 The differential diagnosis of this condition includes all bone lesions that cause massive osteolytic destruction and soft tissue mass.…”

Primary bone tumors involving skull are extremely rare and they constitute 0.8% of all bone tumors. The common tumors that are seen in skull base include fibrous dysplasia, giant cell tumor, chordoma, ossifying fibroma, angiosarcoma. We report a rare case of spindle cell sarcoma arising from right sphenoid bone in a 70-year-old male which presented as unilateral defective vision with mild proptosis.

“…They have also been reported in the external auditory canal [14] and rarely in other locations in the skull, such as the temporal bone [15] and pterygoid plates [16]. They occur most frequently in the frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary sinuses [3,9], but are uncommon in the jawbones [2,3,7].…”

An unusual peripheral osteoma of the mandibular notch: a case report with computed tomography evaluation

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

An osteoma, a slow-growing benign osseous neoplasm of the bone, is characterized by a proliferation of osteoblasts that form bone trabeculae in the connective tissue stroma. It is an uncommon condition that generally occurs in the maxillofacial bones. This neoplasm may be clinically silent for years without any symptoms. It is usually diagnosed when it becomes enlarged and is incidentally observed during a radiological examination. The radiographic characteristic of the lesion is a well circumscribed round or oval radiopaque mass. In this paper, we present a case of an unusual localization of a peripheral osteoma incidentally detected during radiographic examination with subsequent three-dimensional computed tomography evaluation.
