Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of Osteochondroma of the Mandible: A Case Report.

Aim Of The Study: The aim of the present paper is to determine the diagnostic features of the rare presentation of osteochondroma in the mandible. The unusual aspect in this case is that the diagnosis was not established with cone beam computer tomography, which is a commonly used radiographic technique in dentistry, but with the use of ultrasonography.

Case Description: Ultrasonography is very useful for initial examinations, avoiding patient exposure to additional radiation and setting the diagnosis in debatable soft tissue involvement of various lesions.

Sialolithiasis of minor salivary gland: a challenging diagnostic dilemma.

Minor salivary gland sialolithiasis (MSGS) is a not uncommon oral mucosal disease. Its clinical appearance may mimic a mucocyst or other benign submucosal overgrowth. Stasis of saliva, which accompanies MSGS, usually results in minor salivary gland inflammation, with a chronic sialadenitis appearance.

Angioleiomyoma of the oral cavity: a case report and brief review of the literature.

This study presents a case of an oral angioleiomyoma along with its clinical diagnostic approach and laboratory confirmation. The differential diagnosis, especially from angioleiomyosarcoma, is also included. A 51-year-old patient presented with a tumor-like lesion on his upper labial mucosa.

Angiofibrolipoma of the oral cavity.

We describe an unusual and rare case of a lipoma variant known as angiofibrolipoma. A literature search revealed only a few cases of angiofibrolipoma which were located in different anatomical sites; no case of angiofibrolipoma in the oral cavity has been previously reported. We present and discuss the histopatholological-immunohistological findings and features.
