  • Title: Sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garrè (periostitis ossificans).
    Author: Felsberg GJ, Gore RL, Schweitzer ME, Jui V.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1990 Jul; 70(1):117-20. PubMed ID: 2371040.
    Abstract:
    The diagnosis of sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garrè, or periostitis ossificans, is suggested by a history of hard swelling of the mandible accompanied by a carious dentition. Computed tomography, nuclear medicine scanning, and pantomography are used to illustrate the appearance of this condition arising in a 25-year-old woman. The differential diagnosis of mandibular thickening and associated bony sclerosis is discussed.
