Summary
Osseous haemophilic pseudotumours are rare, especially in the mandible. This case highlights unique imaging findings, including a fluid-fluid level, in a mandibular haemophilic pseudotumour.
Area of Science:
- Orthopaedics
- Radiology
- Haematology
Background:
- Osseous haemophilic pseudotumours are rare bone lesions occurring in patients with haemophilia.
- Mandibular involvement is exceptionally rare, with limited documented cases.
Observation:
- This report details the imaging characteristics of a confirmed mandibular haemophilic pseudotumour.
- A distinctive fluid-fluid level was observed, a feature not previously associated with this condition.
Findings:
- The study presents imaging findings of a histopathologically proven mandibular haemophilic pseudotumour.
- The presence of a fluid-fluid level is a novel observation for this rare entity.
Implications:
- This case expands the imaging spectrum of mandibular haemophilic pseudotumours.
- Recognizing this fluid-fluid level may aid in the diagnosis and management of similar rare cases.
