introduction: due to the whole network of polyposis registers worldwide and early prophylactic treatment, survival of familial adenomatosis (fap) patients is improved. extracolonic manifestations are remarkable feature of fap. two extracolonic manifestations (duodenal adenomatosis, leading duodenal cancer and desmoid tumours) play a very important role in the reasons of death in polyposis popul...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of the present study was to investigate the reliability of both periapical radiographs and orthopantomograms for exact detection of tooth root protrusion in the maxillary sinus by correlating the results with cone beam computed tomography. MATERIAL AND METHODS A database of 1400 patients scanned with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was searched for matching periapi...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES To compare different imaging procedures [cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), orthopantomography (OPG), and lateral cephalometry (LC)] for assessing the mandibular height [ramus height (RH)] and condylar process (CondProc) length as they reflect mandibular growth. MATERIALS/METHODS The RH and CondProc of eight ...

BACKGROUND Screening of the oral cavity and dental care was suggested as mandatory preventive measures of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) in patients receiving bisphosphonates (BPs). We investigated the occurrence of ONJ before and after implementation of dental preventive measures when starting BP therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Since April 2005, 154 consecutive patients treated with BPs (POST-...

BACKGROUND In recent years, several cases of mandibular necrosis associated with long-term use of bisphosphonates have been reported. The estimated incidence varies from 1% to 4.6%. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted an observational study with the aim of determining the incidence of jaw osteonecrosis in advanced breast cancer patients with bone metastases under bisphosphonate treatment and to...

IMPORTANCE Pediatric jaw cysts represent a rarely symptomatic clinical entity and are not well addressed in the otolaryngology literature. It is important that otolaryngologists should be familiar with these lesions, which can manifest as jaw swelling or as paranasal sinus abnormalities. OBJECTIVE To review the clinical presentation, radiologic features, management, and outcomes of jaw cysts ...
