慢性骨髓炎伴骨膜下新骨形成是骨膜对慢性炎症/感染性刺激的反应。在颌面区域,传统上被称为加雷骨髓炎伴增生性骨膜炎和最近的骨化性骨膜炎。在最近的文献中,许多作者认为加雷骨髓炎一词是用词不当。慢性骨髓炎合并增殖性骨膜炎,虽然累赘,但被认为是最准确的病理描述。它通常影响年轻患者的下颌骨继发于牙齿感染。管理包括消除感染源和抗生素治疗。我们提出一个不寻常的情况下,慢性骨髓炎与增殖性骨膜炎影响一个12岁的病人下颌骨。感染源与发育中的左下第三磨牙有关,该磨牙显然与口腔没有联系。
Chronic osteomyelitis with subperiosteal new bone formation results from periosteal reaction to chronic inflammatory/infectious stimulation. In the maxillofacial region, it has traditionally been termed Garre's osteomyelitis with proliferative periostitis and more recently periostitis ossificans. The term Garre's osteomyelitis has been regarded as a misnomer by many authors in the recent literature. The term chronic osteomyelitis with proliferative periostitis, although cumbersome, is considered to be the most accurate description of the pathology. It usually affects the mandible of young patients secondary to dental infection. Management involves removal of the source of infection and antibiotic treatment. We present an unusual case of chronic osteomyelitis with proliferative periostitis affecting the mandible of a 12-year-old patient. The source of infection was related to the developing lower left third molar, which had apparently no communication with the oral cavity.
