  • Title: Oral osteomyelitis: pre-AIDS manifestation or strange coincidence?
    Author: Harel-Raviv M, Gorsky M, Lust I, Raviv E.
    Journal: Dent Update; 1996; 23(1):26-9. PubMed ID: 8948219.
    Abstract:
    A bizarre and unexplained localized osteomyelitis was discovered in the mandible of an otherwise apparently healthy 36-year-old man. This strange oral manifestation was followed 2 years later by a diagnosis of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, which indicated full-blown AIDS. Could osteomyelitis of the mandible be an alarming oral manifestation of AIDS before the disease is manifested in other ways?
