Background: Hybrid Odontogenic Tumors (HOT) are defined by the presence of two or more independent odontogenic tumors that originate from and affect the same maxillofacial site.

Case Report: A 37-year-old otherwise healthy male presented with the chief complaint of swelling in the right mandibular body.
Pathologic vertebral fractures (PVF) are common and serious complications in patients with metastatic lesions affecting the spine. Accurate assessment of cancer patients' PVF risk is an unmet clinical need. Load-to-strength ratios (LSRs) evaluated in vivo by estimating vertebral loading from biomechanical modeling and strength from computed tomography imaging (CT) have been associated with osteoporotic vertebral fractures in older adults.

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are rare benign osteolytic tumors which occur most frequently within the first two decades of life and can lead to pathological fractures. They have characteristic imaging and histologic features and have historically been classified into two types: primary ABCs, which are true neoplasms linked to specific oncogenes, and secondary ABCs, which are preceded by other bone lesions. The occurrence of multiple concurrent primary ABCs is exceedingly rare; with only a few cases reported in the published literature.
