Transoral removal of peripheral osteoma at sigmoid notch of the mandible

Osteoma is a benign osteogenic slow-growing tumor. Though mandible is involved more often than the maxilla only one other case of osteoma sigmoid notch has been mentioned in the English literature till date. Cosmesis and function are the main reasons that dictate the removal of the osteomas, so we preferred to use an intra oral approach to better prevent the scar and achieve good patient acceptance.
