fa Recurrent osteoblastoma of the maxilla رادیولوژی دهان، فک و صورت Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology گزارش مورد case report Osteoblastoma is a benign neoplasm which commonly occurs in the vertebral column and long bones. The tumour grows slowly and rarely recurs after surgery. This report presents the clinicopathological and radiological findings of a case of recurrent osteoblastoma in the maxilla. A 7-year-old male patient visited our department with chief complaints of left facial swelling and pain. A panoramic radiograph showed a homogeneous radio-opaque expansile lesion in the left maxilla. The lesion was thought to be fibrous dysplasia and the patient underwent a surgical excision using the Caldwell–Luc procedure. Histopathological examination of the lesion confirmed it as benign osteoblastoma. The lesion recurred 6 months after the initial surgery. CT images revealed a large mass with multiple internal calcifications. Subsequently, the patient underwent mass excision with subtotal left maxillectomy. Follow-up CT scans at 1 year intervals showed no recurrence for 5 years. <hr><p> <strong>Source: </strong>DentoMaxilloFacial Radiology </p><p> <a href="http://dmfr.birjournals.org/content/42/5/20100263.abstract" target="_blank"><font color="#0000ff">Full Text</font></a></p> osteoblastoma ,recurrence, X-ray computed tomography 0 0 http://idai.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-32-1398&slc_lang=fa&sid=1 S Shah 10031947532846006407 10031947532846006407 No Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, BK21, and Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea J-E Kim 10031947532846006408 10031947532846006408 No Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology and Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea K-H Huh 10031947532846006409 10031947532846006409 No Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology and Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea W-J Yi 10031947532846006410 10031947532846006410 No Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, BK21, and Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea M-S Heo hmslsh@snu.ac.kr 10031947532846006411 10031947532846006411 Yes Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology and Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea S-S Lee 10031947532846006412 10031947532846006412 No Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, BK21, and Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea
