Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

6.8K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

7.6K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Maxillary myxoma is a rare, benign, yet locally aggressive mesenchymal tumor.
  • Its pathogenesis is not fully understood.
  • Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for favorable outcomes.

Observation:

  • A case report details a 2.5-month-old infant with an endonasal tumor extending to the ethmoid sinus.
  • Initial biopsy suggested fibrous dysplasia, but histological examination of the surgical specimen confirmed myxoma.
  • Surgical excision was performed via an endonasal approach.

Findings:

  • Histological examination is definitive for diagnosing maxillary myxoma.
  • Surgical intervention is the primary treatment modality.
  • No recurrence was observed after 2.5 years of follow-up.

Implications:

  • Accurate histological diagnosis is critical, especially when initial biopsies are inconclusive.
  • Surgical management requires careful consideration of the tumor's extent and location.
  • Long-term surveillance is mandatory due to the high recurrence rate of maxillary myxoma.
