Histopathologic features and management of ameloblastoma: study of 20 cases. (1/137)

BACKGROUND: Odontogenic ameloblastoma (OA) of the jaws is a rare neoplasia of the oral cavity (0.78%) with a 5:1 mandible/maxilla relation, with the molar region and the ascendant ramus being the most affected areas. Comparing our results with the literature demonstrated to us that this tumor may be considered to be a worldwide problem due to the similarity in clinical findings among different ethnic groups CASE SERIES: The purpose of this study of 20 patients with ameloblastoma of the mandible and maxilla diagnosed at the Stomatology and Head and Neck Services of Heliopolis Hospital, Sao Paulo, Brazil, from 1980 to 1997, was to establish the histopathologic pattern of classification of those tumors through optical microscopy and the relation of this histopathology to therapeutic management. Using the Regeze, Kerr and Courtney classification (1978), we diagnosed follicular tumor in 11 cases, plexiform in 6 cases and unicystic in 3 cases, and performed surgical resection with a safety margin of 1.5 to 3.0 cm in the follicular and plexiform cases and bone curettage in the unicystic cases.  (+info)

Extra copies of chromosomes 7, 8, 12, 19, and 21 are recurrent in adamantinoma. (2/137)

Adamantinoma of long bones is a rare neoplasm predominantly involving the tibia. Cytogenetic studies of adamantinoma are few. Cytogenetic or molecular cytogenetic analysis of four adamantinomas, and a review of eleven cases in the literature reveals extra copies of chromosomes 7, 8, 12, 19, and 21 as recurrent in this neoplasm. Adamantinoma may be confused with a variety of primary and metastatic epithelial and mesenchymal neoplasms. Observation of these aneuploidies may be useful in establishing the diagnosis of adamantinoma.  (+info)

Clinicostatistical study of ameloblastoma treatment. (3/137)

The purpose of this study was to investigate the treatment of 190 cases of ameloblastoma in our department from 1966 to 1994. The statistical results with regard to age, sex and region agreed with those of other investigators. Thirty-five of 43 (81.4%) cases underwent enucleation in 1960s, but the sixteen of 27 (59.3%) cases underwent partial resection of mandible in 1990s. The defect of mandible was reconstructed with iliac bone grafting since 1968, grafts with a mixture of iliac blocked bone and PCBM (particulate cancellous bone and marrow) have been used since 1975. Grafting of the inferior alveolar nerve with the great auricular nerve to the defect has been performed in our department since 1977. Recently, technique involving pull-through of the inferior alveolar nerve bundle has been used in our department. When the reconstruction method for the mandible and nerve has been established, it becomes possible to operate radically and positively. Recurrence occurred in 17 cases after the primary enucleation. It is thought that the primary treatment of ameloblastoma must be as radical as possible. It appears to be necessary to observe progress and perform follow-up in cases of ameloblastoma for more than ten years, because there was one recurrence at 9 years and 4 months after the first operation. In fact, three quarters of our cases were lost to follow-up. Such losses can problems in confirming recurrence and responding rapidly.  (+info)

Metastatic malignant ameloblastoma responding to chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin. (4/137)

We report an unusual case of metastatic ameloblastoma, involving lung and pleura. that repeatedly responded to systemic treatment with paclitaxel and carboplatin. suggesting principle chemosensitivity of this rare disease.  (+info)

Cytokeratins expression of constituting cells in ameloblastoma. (5/137)

The purposes of this study were to investigate the distribution of cytokeratins in the different tissue types of ameloblastoma and to discuss the histogenesis of this tumor. CK19 and CK8, which are markers for odontogenic epithelium, reacted positively to the constituting cells in all types of ameloblastoma. This suggests that all types of ameloblastoma derive from odontogenic epithelium. However, the desmoplastic type diminished the odontogenic characteristics because the basal cells are negative to CK19. Immunoreactions of five kinds of cytokeratin revealed similar results in plexiform, follicular, acanthomatous, and granular cell types. The plexiform type is probably the original type of ameloblastoma; the other types have the characteristics of squamous epithelium, and the follicular, acanthomatous, and granular cell types can develop due to the differentiation of cells of the plexiform type into squamous epithelium.  (+info)

Hemicortical allograft reconstruction after resection of low-grade malignant bone tumours. (6/137)

Low-grade surface tumours of bone may theoretically be treated by hemicortical resection, retaining part of the circumference of the cortex. An inlay allograft may be used to reconstruct the defect. Since 1988 we have performed 22 hemicortical procedures in selected patients with low-grade parosteal osteosarcoma (6), peripheral chondrosarcoma (6) and adamantinoma (10). Restricted medullary involvement was not a contraindication for this procedure. There was no evidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis at a mean follow-up of 64 months (27 to 135). Wide resection margins were obtained in 19 patients. All allografts incorporated completely and there were no fractures or infections. Fractures of the remaining hemicortex occurred in six patients and were managed successfully by casts or by osteosynthesis. The functional results were excellent or good in all except one patient. Hemicortical procedures for selected cases of low-grade surface tumours give excellent oncological and functional outcomes. There was complete remodelling and fewer complications when compared with larger intercalary procedures. The surgery is technically demanding but gives good clinical results.  (+info)

Malignant odontogenic tumors. A retrospective and collaborative study of seven cases. (7/137)

The frequency, clinico-pathologic features and outcome of malignant odontogenic tumors diagnosed according to the current WHO classification in three pathology services in Mexico City are presented. There were seven cases (5 male and 2 female patients), which represent less than 4% of all odontogenic tumors diagnosed in these services. There were six odontogenic carcinomas (two malignant ameloblastomas, two clear cell odontogenic carcinomas, one primary intraosseous carcinoma and one carcinoma arising in an odontogenic cyst) and one ameloblastic fibrosarcoma. Age ranged from 25 to 72 years (mean: 43.8). Clear cell odontogenic carcinomas occurred in the canine-premolar region, one in the maxilla and one in the mandible (one ia a man and one in a woman), while the remaining lesions affected the posterior region of the mandible, with a male predominance (4:1), which agrees with previously reported cases. Surgical resection was the treatment employed in all carcinomas, while the ameloblastic fibrosarcoma was treated with chemotherapy due to its large extension, but without favorable response. The patient with primary intraosseous carcinoma had submaxillary and cervical metastases and the neoplasm was the cause of death. In spite of their extremely low frequency, malignant odontogenic tumors are an important cause of extensive surgical procedures in the oral and maxillofacial region.  (+info)

Ameloblastic fibroma of the mandible. Report of two cases. (8/137)

The ameloblastic fibroma (AF)-ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO), is an uncommon benign mixed odontogenic tumor (epithelial and mesenchymal), that represents the 2% of all odontogenic tumors. It usually appears in the mandible and in the posterior segments of young patients without gender predilection, and sometimes is associated with an impacted tooth. The classification of the WHO includes it in the subtype of odontogenic tumors with a defined histologic features. The AF and the AFO are considered as an unique entity as they are variations of the same tumor, only distinct for the presence of an odontoma in the case of the AFO. Surgical conservative treatment with excision followed by curettage seems to be the most appropriate therapeutic option. The objective of this paper is to report two cases of this tumor, to make a brief review of the literature and its differential diagnosis, to analyse its clinical and histologic features and the therapeutic option.  (+info)

Ameloblastoma is a slow-growing, non-cancerous tumor that develops in the jawbone, typically in the lower jaw. It originates from the cells that form the enamel (the hard, outer surface of the teeth). This tumor can cause swelling, pain, and displacement or loosening of teeth. In some cases, it may also lead to fractures of the jawbone.

There are different types of ameloblastomas, including solid or multicystic, unicystic, and peripheral ameloblastoma. Treatment usually involves surgical removal of the tumor, with careful monitoring to ensure that it does not recur. In rare cases, more aggressive treatment may be necessary if the tumor is large or has invaded surrounding tissues.

It's important to note that while ameloblastomas are generally benign, they can still cause significant morbidity and should be treated promptly by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon or other qualified healthcare professional.

Jaw neoplasms refer to abnormal growths or tumors in the jawbone (mandible) or maxilla (upper jaw). These growths can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign neoplasms are not considered life-threatening, but they can still cause problems by invading nearby tissues and causing damage. Malignant neoplasms, on the other hand, can spread to other parts of the body and can be life-threatening if not treated promptly and effectively.

Jaw neoplasms can present with various symptoms such as swelling, pain, loose teeth, numbness or tingling in the lips or tongue, difficulty chewing or swallowing, and jaw stiffness or limited movement. The diagnosis of jaw neoplasms typically involves a thorough clinical examination, imaging studies such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRI, and sometimes a biopsy to determine the type and extent of the tumor.

Treatment options for jaw neoplasms depend on several factors, including the type, size, location, and stage of the tumor, as well as the patient's overall health and medical history. Treatment may involve surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these modalities. Regular follow-up care is essential to monitor for recurrence or metastasis (spread) of the neoplasm.

Mandibular neoplasms refer to abnormal growths or tumors that develop in the mandible, which is the lower jawbone. These growths can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign neoplasms are typically slow-growing and rarely spread to other parts of the body, while malignant neoplasms can invade surrounding tissues and may metastasize (spread) to distant sites.

Mandibular neoplasms can have various causes, including genetic mutations, exposure to certain chemicals or radiation, and infection with certain viruses. The symptoms of mandibular neoplasms may include swelling or pain in the jaw, difficulty chewing or speaking, numbness in the lower lip or chin, loose teeth, and/or a lump or mass in the mouth or neck.

The diagnosis of mandibular neoplasms typically involves a thorough clinical examination, imaging studies such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRI scans, and sometimes a biopsy to confirm the type and extent of the tumor. Treatment options depend on the type, stage, and location of the neoplasm, and may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these approaches. Regular follow-up care is essential to monitor for recurrence or metastasis.

Maxillary neoplasms refer to abnormal growths or tumors in the maxilla, which is the upper jaw bone. These growths can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign neoplasms are slow-growing and do not spread to other parts of the body, while malignant neoplasms can invade surrounding tissues and spread to distant sites.

Maxillary neoplasms can cause various symptoms such as swelling, pain, numbness, loose teeth, or difficulty in chewing or swallowing. They may also cause nasal congestion, nosebleeds, or visual changes if they affect the eye or orbit. The diagnosis of maxillary neoplasms usually involves a combination of clinical examination, imaging studies such as CT or MRI scans, and biopsy to determine the type and extent of the tumor.

Treatment options for maxillary neoplasms depend on several factors, including the type, size, location, and stage of the tumor, as well as the patient's overall health and preferences. Treatment may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these modalities. Regular follow-up care is essential to monitor for recurrence or metastasis and ensure optimal outcomes.

Odontogenic tumors are a group of neoplasms that originate from the dental tissues or their remnants, including the odontogenic epithelium, ectomesenchyme, and/or their derivatives. These tumors can be benign or malignant and may affect the jaw bones and surrounding structures. They can cause various symptoms, such as swelling, pain, loosening of teeth, and altered bite. The classification of odontogenic tumors includes a wide range of entities with different biological behaviors, clinical features, and treatment approaches. Accurate diagnosis is essential for proper management and prognosis.

A Follicular Cyst is a type of cyst that forms within a follicle, which is the sac-like structure in the skin that contains and protects a hair root. In particular, it refers to a specific condition in the ovary where a follicle fails to rupture or release an egg after maturation, instead continuing to grow and fill with fluid, forming a cyst. These cysts are usually asymptomatic but can become large and cause symptoms such as pelvic pain or discomfort, irregular menstrual cycles, or abnormal vaginal bleeding. In most cases, follicular cysts resolve on their own within 2-3 menstrual cycles, but in rare cases, they may require medical intervention if they become complicated or do not resolve.

A radicular cyst is a type of dental cyst that forms around the root of a tooth, usually as a result of chronic infection or inflammation. It is also known as a periapical cyst. The cyst develops from the accumulation of fluid and cells in the periodontal ligament, which is the tissue that connects the tooth to the jawbone.

Radicular cysts are often caused by untreated dental caries or trauma to the tooth that allows bacteria to enter the pulp chamber of the tooth and cause an infection. Over time, the infection can spread to the surrounding tissues, leading to the formation of a cyst. Symptoms of a radicular cyst may include pain, swelling, and tenderness in the affected area. Treatment typically involves removing the affected tooth and the cyst through a surgical procedure.

Oral surgical procedures refer to various types of surgeries performed in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region, which includes the mouth, jaws, face, and skull. These procedures are typically performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons, who are dental specialists with extensive training in surgical procedures involving the mouth, jaws, and face.

Some common examples of oral surgical procedures include:

1. Tooth extractions: This involves removing a tooth that is damaged beyond repair or causing problems for the surrounding teeth. Wisdom tooth removal is a common type of tooth extraction.
2. Dental implant placement: This procedure involves placing a small titanium post in the jawbone to serve as a replacement root for a missing tooth. A dental crown is then attached to the implant, creating a natural-looking and functional replacement tooth.
3. Jaw surgery: Also known as orthognathic surgery, this procedure involves repositioning the jaws to correct bite problems or facial asymmetry.
4. Biopsy: This procedure involves removing a small sample of tissue from the oral cavity for laboratory analysis, often to diagnose suspicious lesions or growths.
5. Lesion removal: This procedure involves removing benign or malignant growths from the oral cavity, such as tumors or cysts.
6. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery: This procedure involves treating disorders of the TMJ, which connects the jawbone to the skull and allows for movement when eating, speaking, and yawning.
7. Facial reconstruction: This procedure involves rebuilding or reshaping the facial bones after trauma, cancer surgery, or other conditions that affect the face.

Overall, oral surgical procedures are an important part of dental and medical care, helping to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, and face.

Odontogenic cysts are a type of cyst that originates from the dental tissues or odontogenic apparatus. They are typically found in the jawbones, and can be classified as developmental or inflammatory in origin. Developmental odontogenic cysts arise from remnants of the tooth-forming structures, while inflammatory odontogenic cysts result from an infection or injury to a tooth.

The most common types of odontogenic cysts include:

1. Periapical cyst - an inflammatory cyst that forms at the tip of the root of a dead or non-vital tooth.
2. Dentigerous cyst - a developmental cyst that surrounds the crown of an unerupted or impacted tooth.
3. Follicular cyst - a type of dentigerous cyst that forms around the crown of an unerupted wisdom tooth.
4. Odontogenic keratocyst - a developmental cyst that arises from the dental lamina and has a high recurrence rate.
5. Lateral periodontal cyst - a rare, developmental cyst that forms in the periodontal ligament of a vital tooth.

Odontogenic cysts can cause various symptoms such as swelling, pain, or numbness in the affected area. They may also displace or resorb adjacent teeth. Diagnosis is typically made through radiographic imaging and histopathological examination of tissue samples obtained through biopsy. Treatment options include surgical excision, marsupialization (a procedure that creates an opening between the cyst and oral cavity), or enucleation (removal of the cyst lining).

A dentigerous cyst is a type of odontogenic cyst that forms around the crown of an unerupted tooth. It is typically slow-growing and often asymptomatic, but it can cause displacement or resorption of adjacent teeth if it becomes large enough. Dentigerous cysts are more common in permanent teeth than primary teeth, and they are more likely to occur in the mandible (lower jaw) than the maxilla (upper jaw). They are usually diagnosed through radiographic examination and can be treated by surgical removal of the cyst along with the affected tooth. If left untreated, dentigerous cysts can continue to grow and may eventually develop into a tumor or cancer.

Panoramic radiography is a specialized type of dental X-ray imaging that captures a panoramic view of the entire mouth, including the teeth, upper and lower jaws, and surrounding structures. It uses a special machine that rotates around the head, capturing images as it moves. This technique provides a two-dimensional image that is helpful in diagnosing and planning treatment for various dental conditions such as impacted teeth, bone abnormalities, and jaw disorders.

The panoramic radiograph can also be used to assess the development and positioning of wisdom teeth, detect cysts or tumors in the jaws, and evaluate the effects of trauma or injury to the mouth. It is a valuable tool for dental professionals as it allows them to see a comprehensive view of the oral structures, which may not be visible with traditional X-ray techniques.

It's important to note that while panoramic radiography provides valuable information, it should be used in conjunction with other diagnostic tools and clinical examinations to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

An adenomatoid tumor is a benign (non-cancerous) neoplasm that typically arises in the serosal surfaces of the reproductive organs, such as the epididymis in men and the fallopian tube or uterus in women. These tumors are composed of epithelioid cells arranged in tubules, glands, or cysts, and they can sometimes be mistaken for malignant tumors due to their gross appearance. However, adenomatoid tumors are generally slow-growing and do not spread to other parts of the body. They are usually treated with surgical excision and have an excellent prognosis.

"Dens in dente" is a developmental anomaly of teeth, primarily the permanent maxillary (upper) molars. It is characterized by the presence of an additional cusp or tubercle on the occlusal surface of the tooth, which resembles a small "tooth within a tooth." This extra cusp typically appears on the lingual/palatal aspect of the crown, near the cingulum area.

The term "dens in dente" is derived from Latin, where "dens" means tooth and "in dente" refers to something being inside or within the tooth. It is also known as "dens invaginatus," "invaginated odontome," or "evaginated odontoma."

The presence of dens in dente can lead to various dental issues, such as dental caries (cavities), periodontal problems, and difficulties with tooth eruption. Proper diagnosis and management are essential to prevent complications and maintain good oral health.

Gingival neoplasms refer to abnormal growths or tumors that occur in the gingiva, which are the part of the gums that surround the teeth. These growths can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign neoplasms include conditions such as fibromas, papillomas, and hemangiomas, while malignant neoplasms are typically squamous cell carcinomas.

Gingival neoplasms can present with a variety of symptoms, including swelling, bleeding, pain, and loose teeth. They may also cause difficulty with chewing, speaking, or swallowing. The exact cause of these neoplasms is not always known, but risk factors include tobacco use, alcohol consumption, poor oral hygiene, and certain viral infections.

Diagnosis of gingival neoplasms typically involves a thorough clinical examination, including a dental exam and biopsy. Treatment options depend on the type and stage of the neoplasm, but may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these approaches. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices can help to detect gingival neoplasms at an early stage and improve treatment outcomes.

I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Suburban Population" is not a medical term. It refers to the people living in suburban areas, which are typically residential districts or communities that lie outside a city center. They are often characterized by single-family homes and less population density than in urban areas. If you have any questions related to medical terminology, I would be happy to help with those!

Maxillary diseases refer to conditions that affect the maxilla, which is the upper bone of the jaw. This bone plays an essential role in functions such as biting, chewing, and speaking, and also forms the upper part of the oral cavity, houses the upper teeth, and supports the nose and the eyes.

Maxillary diseases can be caused by various factors, including infections, trauma, tumors, congenital abnormalities, or systemic conditions. Some common maxillary diseases include:

1. Maxillary sinusitis: Inflammation of the maxillary sinuses, which are air-filled cavities located within the maxilla, can cause symptoms such as nasal congestion, facial pain, and headaches.
2. Periodontal disease: Infection and inflammation of the tissues surrounding the teeth, including the gums and the alveolar bone (which is part of the maxilla), can lead to tooth loss and other complications.
3. Maxillary fractures: Trauma to the face can result in fractures of the maxilla, which can cause pain, swelling, and difficulty breathing or speaking.
4. Maxillary cysts and tumors: Abnormal growths in the maxilla can be benign or malignant and may require surgical intervention.
5. Oral cancer: Cancerous lesions in the oral cavity, including the maxilla, can cause pain, swelling, and difficulty swallowing or speaking.

Treatment for maxillary diseases depends on the specific condition and its severity. Treatment options may include antibiotics, surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices can help prevent many maxillary diseases.
