Title: Central hemangioma of the mandible: intraoral resection and reconstruction. Author: Piercell MP, Waite DE, Nelson RL. Journal: J Oral Surg; 1975 Mar; 33(3):225-32. PubMed ID: 1054084. Abstract: A review of the literature and report of a case of central hemangioma of the mandible have been presented. This case has merit from the standpoint of the relative rarity of the lesion within the jaws, and the means by which reconstruction was carried out. Most significant in the presentation is a reminded to all maxillofacial surgeons that any osteolytic defect in either jaw can be a central hemangioma. Because of the serious consequences of biopsy or of extraction of teeth, hemangioma must always be considered in the differential diagnosis; proper precautions must be taken in establishment of a final diagnosis before surgical intervention is undertaken.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
