Clinical, therapeutic and prognostic features of osteosarcoma of the jaws - Experience of 36 cases
2012, Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :In differential diagnosis, for example simple infections, and diseases such as fibrous dysplasia and osteomyelitis must be taken into consideration (Granowski-LeCornu et al., 2011; Petrikowski et al., 1995). Radiological and, most important, a comprehensive histopathological assessment is necessary (Chindia et al., 1998; Werner et al., 1996). OSJ have a high tendency towards local relapse (mandible 39–70%; maxilla 15–53%)(Mark et al., 1991; Wilcox et al., 1973).
Clinical features and types of paediatric orofacial malignant neoplasms at two hospitals in Nairobi, Kenya
2012, Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :In the head and neck region OS represents about 7% of all neoplasms involving mainly the jaws (Wanebo, 1992). Chindia et al. (1998) in a report of 14 cases of OS of the maxillofacial bones among Kenyans found 3 cases in patients aged less than 15 years. All the 3 cases were in the mandible and presented with pain, swelling and ulceration.
