“…However, the exact origin of this pathology is still under debate. Among the published cases of peripheral osteoma of mandibular angle and in our case, trauma or any other etiologic factor cannot be determined (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”

“…Recommended general approach allows a conservative attitude toward asymptomatic lesions (5). Durao et al (19) prefered to keep the lesion under observation because of the small size and asymptomatic behavior of the lesion in their case. Surgical intervention is indicated only if it becomes large enough to cause facial asymmetry and functional impairment (1-3).…”

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.

“…Conventional radiography typically shows a pedunculated, mushroom-shaped, radiopaque mass (Durão et al, 2012). Although the radiological features are suggestive, CT is preferred to understand the precise location and extent of the mass, as well as acting as an aid for surgical planning (Mittal and Iyer, 2008;Durão et al, 2012).…”

A six-year-old, male, castrated domestic shorthair cat was presented for evaluation of an oral mass. Full physical examination revealed a large hard mass arising from the lateral aspect of the caudal part of the left mandible. Abdominal ultrasound and thoracic computed tomography (CT) were performed to rule out metastatic disease. In addition, CT of the skull with intravenous contrast agent was performed. Histopathological examination of extra-oral biopsies confirmed the tentative diagnosis of peripheral osteoma. A three-dimensional printed skull was used in conjunction with the CT images to determine the detailed location and extent of the mass and to identify anatomical spatial relationships with important neurovascular structures. Surgical debulking of the osteoma was performed. The cat recovered uneventfully but the mass regrew nine months after debulking therapy, sooner than expected. Nevertheless, CT scan of the skull was suggestive for regrowth of the peripheral osteoma rather than for malignant transformation. The owners did not elect to pursue caudal mandibulectomy.

“…14,15 Radiographically, peripheral osteomas appear as wellcircumscribed pedunculated or sessile radiopaque masses which seem to have normal bone density. 16 In cases of superimposition of the lesion on imaging, CBCT can be useful. 17 However, it may be difficult to differentiate peripheral osteomas from other lesions using imaging techniques; the differential diagnosis includes peripheral ossifying fibromas, exostoses, sessile osteochondromas, osteoid osteomas, periosteal osteoblastomas and parosteal osteosarcomas.…”
