“…Various factors may be responsible for osteoma formation including injury, inflammation, genetic defects, and developmental disorders. 8,9 In the present case, there was no history of recent or past head trauma and chronic inflammation in the mastoid antrum, which means the first 2 factors can be excluded. Although the bony lesion in the occipital bone had not been pathologically confirmed, this is a suspected case of multiple cranial osteomas.…”

“…Some authors think that both sexes are equally affected, 3 whereas others have observed that they are diagnosed more often either in male or in female. 5,8 The cause of skull base osteomas is uncertain. Various factors may be responsible for osteoma formation including injury, inflammation, genetic defects, and developmental disorders.…”

“…[1025] The current apparently established surgical paradigm for the latter involves raising a bicoronal scalp flap to expose the craniofacial skeleton. [92328] After this, a cranial frontal bone flap is raised and other craniofacial osteotomies of varying degrees of complexities are made; radical lesionectomy is achieved, and complex craniofacial architectural reconstruction is performed to achieve post operative acceptable functional and esthetic outcome. These complex skull base surgical dissections and reconstructions are greatly facilitated with an array of modern-day surgical technological adjuncts like powered drills; specialized dissection tools like ultrasonic drills, and even CO 2 laser; many cutting-edge technology engineered craniofacial rigid reconstruction substitutes, and miniplates and screws.…”

Background:Unlike small and medium size fronto-ethmoidal osteomas which are amenable to surgical excision through limited craniofacial openings, giant lesions require extensive and complex craniofacial dissection, and post lesionectomy reconstruction using an array of modern-day surgical adjuncts. This is a report of our surgical technique for the successful and esthetically fair operative resection of a giant fronto-ethmoidal osteoma in a difficult practice setting.Case Description:A 32-year-old Nigerian lady harbored a giant complex fronto-ethmoidal ivory osteoma. Deploying our understanding of modern-day advanced microsurgical anatomy and technique of skull base surgery, but under severe resource limitations, a radical total surgical resection was performed and an esthetically fair post lesionectomy reconstruction was achieved. The patient remains tumor-free in 20 months, so far, of postoperative follow-up.Conclusions:Even under severe resource limitations, inventive adaptations of modern-day skull base surgery techniques can facilitate hitherto unusual functional and esthetically successful resection of giant osteomas of the fronto-ethmoidal sinus complex.

“…Accepted theories point to embryologic, traumatic and infectious causes. [3] Osteomas arising from laryngeal cartilages are extremely rare. Chondrosarcoma and chondroma rarely occur in the larynx.…”

“…[1] Histologically, three types of osteoma are recognized: compact, cancellous and mixed. [3] Radiographically, osteomas appear as well-defined calcified masses. Computed tomography (CT) can help define the extent of an osteoma and assist with surgical planning for excision.…”

© Trakya Üniversitesi T p Fakültesi Dergisi. AVES Yay nc l k taraf ndan bas lm t r. HerOsteomas are benign, typically slow-growing tumors composed of densely sclerotic, well circumscribed bone. Laryngeal osteomas are extremely rare. We report an extremely rare case of laryngeal osteoma. The patient had complaints ofdysphonia for 3 years and, dyspnea for 1 month. There was a supraglottic mass filling the laryngeal lumen on indirect laryngoscopic examination. Mass was completely excised using microlaryngoscopic instruments. After the operation, the patient's complaints were completely resolved. Case reports and a review of the world literature concerning laryngeal osteoma and treatment are presented.
