A rare case of mandibular osteoma, a benign bone tumor, developed after trauma in a 31-year-old female. Surgical removal was successful, with no recurrence, highlighting trauma as a potential cause for these bone lesions.

Area of Science:

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Osteomas are benign bone tumors with slow growth, typically found in craniofacial sinuses.
The etiopathogenesis of osteomas is debated, with theories including developmental abnormalities, neoplastic processes, or reactive changes.
This case focuses on a mandibular osteoma, a less common but documented location.

Observation:

A 31-year-old female presented with a two-year history of mandibular swelling.
Radiological examination revealed a sclerotic lesion on the right lower mandibular edge.
The patient reported a history of trauma to the affected area prior to swelling onset.

Findings:

Surgical excision and subsequent histopathological examination confirmed a compact osteoma.

The patient experienced no recurrence one year post-surgery.

Gardner syndrome was excluded in this case.

Implications:

This case supports the hypothesis that trauma can be an etiopathogenic factor in the development of mandibular osteomas.
It underscores the importance of considering trauma history in the diagnosis of mandibular bone lesions.
While this osteoma was solitary, the abstract notes that multiple osteomas warrant screening for Gardner syndrome due to colon cancer risk.
