Abstract:
A traumatic bone cyst (TBC) is an unusual non-neoplastic pseudocystic cavity in the bone that is often asymptomatic and slow-growing. It is unexpectedly detected by regular radiography imaging. These lesions are more common in the mandible than they are in the maxilla, and they are often seen in patients older than 40 years of age. A radiolucent unilocular lesion with scalloped margins is the most common radiographic appearance. If the hollow is found to contain blood or straw-colored fluid, surgical exploration is the only way to make a conclusive diagnosis of this uncommon condition. We present a case of an asymptomatic, incidentally diagnosed (on radiograph) traumatic bone cyst in a young patient involving the mandibular anterior region with periapical radiolucency. The case was diagnosed by radiographs and histopathological evaluation.
摘要:
创伤性骨囊肿(TBC)是骨骼中一种不寻常的非肿瘤性假性囊腔,通常无症状且生长缓慢。通过常规射线照相成像意外地检测到它。这些病变在下颌骨比上颌骨更常见,它们常见于40岁以上的患者。具有扇形边缘的射线可透的单眼病变是最常见的影像学表现。如果发现空洞含有血液或稻草色液体,手术探查是对这种罕见情况做出结论性诊断的唯一方法。我们提出了一个无症状的病例,一名年轻患者的偶然诊断(在X光片上)外伤性骨囊肿,涉及下颌前区,并伴有根尖周围的射线不透性。通过X线片和组织病理学评估诊断该病例。
