pathologic fractures of the jaw are usually associated with aggressive, destructive lesions or malignant lesions of the jaws. aneurysmal bone cysts (abc) of the jaws are benign lesions which normally do not cause destruction to such an extent. this article reports a relatively aggressive abc of the mandible in a 19 year-old male which destroyed the buccal and lingual cortices as well as the inf...

schwannoma(neurilemmoma) is a benign tumor originates from schwann cells. ancient (degenerated) schwannoma is a long-standing schwannoma with degenerative changes. head and neck region is one of the most common sites for nerve sheath tumors but intraosseous schwannoma is rare. the mandible is the most common site of occurrence for this lesion. we report a rare case of intraosseous ancient schwa...

The aim of this study is to determine whether or not the breed and sex factors have an effect on shape in mandibles Hamdani Awassi sheep. A total 31 were used. samples analyzed via geometric morphometric methods by using semilandmark. In study, it was determined that primary principal component accounted for 36.52% difference. According analysis, clustered significantly terms breed; whereas, th...

Objective: To resonstruct 3D model of mandible on the basis of Virtual Chinese Human data and normal CT pectures,and to compare their resonstruction results with each other. Methods: To select mandible data from Virtual Chinese Human slices and normal CT pictures, and reconstruct 3D model of mandible respectively by using a modified MC algorithm. Rusults: A 3D model of mandible was reconstructe...

This case report presents the removal of complex composite odontoma in a young patient in the right body of mandible via the unilateral sagittal splitting of the mandible. This article shows that sagittal split osteotomy of the mandible can be very useful to access various pathologies in the body, angle, and ramus of the mandible and to navigate lesions that are in proximity to the inferior alv...

INTRODUCTION Mandible reconstruction is still very challenging for surgeons. Mandible defects could be the consequence of ablative surgery for malignancies, huge jaw cysts, infection and trauma. Segmental resection of the mandible may compromise orofacial function and often lead to patients psychological disorders. Despite very frequent use of microvascular flaps, autogenous bone grafts are sti...
