  • Title: [Exostosis of the zygoma. Apropos a case].
    Author: Benjelloun A, el-Kohen A, Jazouli N, Kzadri M.
    Journal: Rev Stomatol Chir Maxillofac; 2000 Jan; 101(1):39-42. PubMed ID: 10738754.
    Abstract:
    Exostosis is a benign bony process arising from cortical bone. It is generally localized at the fertile metaphysis of long and some flat bones. Localization to the zygoma and/or the coronoid process is exceptional (5 cases in the world literature). We report an original case of exostosis with isolated zygomatic localization in a 14-year-old girl and review the literature. We emphasize the clinical features and the diagnostic and therapeutic approach in this condition.
