Rare case of inferior alveolar nerve buccal fenestration

Inferior alveolar nerve hemangioma.

A 14-year-old male presented with lower lip numbness and a slowly enlarging mandibular mass. Computed tomography demonstrated an expansile lesion centered in the marrow space of the left mandibular body, extending along the course of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), and expanding the mental foramen. Preoperative diagnosis was consistent with an IAN schwannoma. Surgical planning was performed ...

Inferior Alveolar Nerve

Dental Update – September 2003 3 7 5 Abstract: The surgical removal of lower third molars endangers both the lingual and inferior alveolar nerves.

A Remarkable rare case of fractured endodontic instrument in periradicular region compressing inferior alveolar nerve

This study aims to present the management of a rare case of a separated endodontic instrument in the periradicular area. The broken instrument had penetrated within and along the mandibular canal from the periapical zone of mandibular second molar after endodontic treatment, leading to acute neurological symptoms. These subsided completely following surgical removal of the separated instrument....

Traumatic neuroma of the inferior alveolar nerve: a case report.

Traumatic neuromas are rare entities which characteristically arise subsequently to surgery and are usually accompanied by pain, typically neuralgic. We present an unusual case of an intraosseous traumatic neuroma of the inferior alveolar nerve following tooth extraction. A 56-year-old man consulted for paresthesias and hyperesthesia in the left mandibular region following extraction of the lef...
