Hwang, Eui-Hwan,Choi, Yong-Suk,Lee, Sang-Rae 대한구강악안면방사선학회 2005 Imaging Science in Dentistry Vol.35 No.4

A very uncommon tumor, primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC), is a carcinoma arising within the jaw. The definite diagnosis of PIOC is often difficult as the lesion must be distinguished from alveolar carcinoma that may invade the bone from the overlying soft tissues or from the tumors that have metastasized to the jaw from a distant site. A case of PIOC arising in the mandible is presented. The clinical, radiologic, and histologic features are described. This rare lesion should be considered in any differential diagnosis of a jaw radiolucency.

Purpose : To investigate the effect of rhBMP-2 on the healing of bone defect in the low calcium diet rat. Materials and Methods : To prepare the experimental model, control group was fed a normal diet and experimental group was fed a low calcium diet for 3 weeks. And then, 4 mm bicortical perforated bone defect was made on mandibular body of each rats. Experimental group was subdivided into two groups; experimental group 1 (rats given a low calcium diet before and after bone defect) and experimental group 2 (rats given a low calcium diet before and after bone defect with rhBMP-2 application). At 1, 3, 5 and 7 weeks after bone defect formation, the rats Were terminated. The healing of bone defect was assessed by three-dimensional computerized tomography, soft xray radiography, and histopathological examination. Results : The wound healing of the bone defect for control group, experimental group 1, and experimental group 2 showed a increase from 3 weeks after bone defect formation. The experimental group 2 showed a more increase in healing amount than control group and experimental group 1 from 5 weeks after bone defect formation and the experimental group 2 showed a complete recovery of bone defect at 7 weeks after bone defect formation. Conclusion : The healing process of bone defect is accelerated by rhBMP-2 application in the low calcium diet rats.

Purpose : To assess the diagnostic accuracy and value in an imaging technique field through the comparison of cone beam computed tomography and conventional panoramic radiography in assessing the topographic relationship between the mandibular canal and impacted third molars. Materials and Methods : Participants consisted of 100 patients offered the images through cone beam computed tomography and panoramic radiography. PSR-9000 Dental CT system (Asahi Roentgen Ind. Co., Ltd, Japan) was used as the unit of cone beam computed tomography. CE-II (Asahi Roentgen Ind. Co., Ltd, Japan) and Pro Max (Planmeca Oy, Finland) were used as the unit of panoramic radiography. The images obtained through panoramic radiography were classified into 3 types according to the distance between mandibular canal and root of mandibular third molar. And they were classified into 4 types according to the proximity of radiographic feature. The images obtained through cone beam computed tomography based on the classification above were classified into 4 types according to the location between the mandibular canal and the root and were analyzed. And they were classified into buccal, inferior, lingual, and between roots, according to the location between mandibular canal and root. The data were statistically analyzed and estimated by χ²-test. Results : 1. There was no statistical significance according to 3 types (type l, type ll, type lll) through CBCT. 2. The results of 4 types (type A, type B, type C, type D) through CBCT were as high prevalence of CBCT 1 in type A, CBCT 2 in type B, CBCT 3 in type C, and CBCT1 in type D and those of which showed statistical significance (P value=0.03). 3. The results according to location between mandibular canal and root through CBCT recorded each 49, 25, 17, 9 as buccal, inferior, lingual, between roots. Conclusion : When estimating the mandibular canal and the roots through the panoramic radiography, it could be difficult to drive the views of which this estimation was considerable. Thus it is required to have an accurate diagnostic approaching through CBCT that could estimate the location between mandibular canal and roots.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma(MFH) is relatively rare in the oro-maxillofacial region, particularly in the oral cavity. MFH usually arise in the extremities, the thigh being the most common site. The incidence of malignant fibrous histiocytoma in bones is rather low compared with that in soft tissues. MFH is predominant in the 40s and 50s. Histologically, the lesion are said to show high cellularity with fibrous stroma, cellular and unclear pleomorphism, and admixture of fibroblast-like spindle cells, which tend to be arranged in whorls or cartwheel or storiform patterns, rounded mononuclear cells and multinucleated giant cells. The cells frequently have abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm which has a foamy or vesicular appearance. Treatment consists of varying combinations of radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and surgery. We have observed a case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma occured in the right maxilla of 32-year-old woman.

The osteochondroma, also known as osteocartilagenous exostosis, is one of the most common benign tumors of the axial skeleton, but is rarely found in the facial bones. When present, the tumor is most often reported to affect the mandibular coronoid process. Osteochondroma of the mandibular condyle is extremely rare and may cause signs and symptoms like those seen in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction. Sometimes, differentiation between osteochondroma and condylar hyperplasia is not possible on histologic grounds alone, but the radiographic and intraoperative findings together are usually sufficient to establish a definite diagnosis, This report reviews the literature concerning osteochondroma, especially of the maxillofacial region, and describes a case of osteochon droma of the condyle.

최의환,고광준 大韓口腔顎顔面 放射線學會 1997 Imaging Science in Dentistry Vol.27 No.1

The purpose of this study was to aid in the prediction of tumor cell tolerance to radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. For this study, cell surviving curves were obtained for mouse lymphoma YAC-1 cell line using semiautomated MTT assay. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10Gy were irradiated at a dose rate of 210cGy/min using ?Co lrradiator ALDORADO 8. After irradiation, YAC-1 cell lines(3×10⁴cell/ml) were exposed to bleomycin or cisplatin for 1 hour. The viable cells were determined for each radiation dose and/or each concentration of drug at the 4th day. And they were compared to control values. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The surviving curve with gentle slope was obtained after irradiation of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 Gy YAC-1 cell line. 2. The cytotoxocity of bleomycin or cisplatin was increased significantly at all concentration of 0.2㎍/ml, 2㎍/ml and 20㎍/ml on YAC-1 cell line (P<0.01). And the cytotoxicity of cisplatin was greater than that of bleomycin at all concentration on YAC-1 cell line (P<0.01). 3. There were no significant differences of surviving fractions among 4Gy, 6Gy and 8Gy after irradiation of each radiation dose with 2㎍/ml of bleomycin compared with irradiation only on YAC-1 cell line. 4. There was significant difference of surviving fraction between 2Gy and 10Gy after irradiation of each radiation dose with 2㎍/ml of cisplatin compared with irradiation only on TAC-1 cell line (P<0.05). 5. There were significant differences of surviving fractions between the groups of irradiation only and the groups of irradiation with 2㎍/ml of bleomycin or cisplatin at all doses of 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10Gy on YAC-1 cell line (P<0.05).

The benign cementoblastoma is a benign odontogenic tumor of cemental-forming tissue, which has an unlimited growth potential. The radiographic appearance of the lesion is pathognomonic and consists of a radiopaque mass surrounded by a thin radiolucent line. This mass is inseparable, radiologically, from the tooth root and is attached to it. Microscopic evaluation suggests that the lesion enlarges by peripheral growth, with the center of the neoplasm being more calcified and inactive than the periphery. We have observed two cases of beneign cementoblastoma(mature calcified stage) occured in the left mandibular first molar of 22-year-old man and 14-year-old man.

활막성 연골종증은 비교적 드문 양성 종양으로 관절내 활액막 결체조직의 양성 반응성 이형성에 의해 여러 개의 연골성 결절을 형성하고 이것이 관절내로 유리되어 유리체를 형성하는 질환으로 주로 슬관절에 발생한다. 활막성 연골종증의 정확한 발생 기전은 아직 밝혀지지 않았으나 외상, 감염 등이 원인으로 제시되고 있다. 저자들은 슬관절 내 히야루론산 주입후 발생한 슬관절내 활막성 연골종증을 1 례 경험하였으며, 관절경적 제거술을 통해 만족스런 결과를 얻었다. As a relatively rare benign tumor, synovial chondromatosis forms several cartilaginous nodules by the benign reactive metaplasia of synovial connective tissues within joints, which are loosed into the joints and cause a disease forming loose body mainly in knee joint. Accurate mechanism of synovial chondromatosis has not been clarified yet; however, trauma, infections and others have been suggested as its possible causes. The authors of this study experienced an example of a patient with synovial chondromatosis in knee joint occurred after the injection of hyaluronic acid in the joints and had a satisfactory outcome through the arthroscopic resection.
