Abstract:
Principal features of Idiopathic Histiocytosis (IH) are discussed in relation to five cases treated in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery VMA. Clinical symptoms of the disease are known. Radiology of the bones and bone scintiscans are of most importance for evaluation of extension of the disease. Surgery is treatment of choice. The major problem with IH in the jaws is, however, progressive mutilation of dental apparatus.
