Parosteal bone tumors involving the small bones of the hand and the foot are rare. Their clinical and imaging features may imitate other bone tumors, leading to incorrect diagnosis and management. Histological examination of the lesion will establish the correct diagnosis. Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation was first described in 1983 by Nora et al.1 In a report of 35 Mayo Clini...

Benign mesenchymal tumors of the craniofacial complex present unique challenges for orbital surgeons because of their potential for orbital compartment syndrome, ocular morbidity, and facial disfigurement and because definitive surgical management may be associated with significant morbidity. While the precise classification of such lesions depends on radiologic as well as histologic evaluation...

Myofibromas are benign uncommon fibroblastic tumors of the soft tissue, bone, or internal organs affecting all ages. These lesions histopathologically may mimic many other soft tissue tumors of the oral cavity such as spindle cell tumors of neurogenic and smooth muscle cell origin, thus leading to misdiagnosis and mistreatment. This case report describes a rare benign tumor, which presented as ...

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous lesion of the bone that commonly affects the jaws with a higher prevalence in the maxilla than the mandible. It is a lesion of unknown etiology, uncertain pathogenesis, and diverse histopathology. Fibrous dysplasia can involve multiple bones (polyostotic) or a single bone (monostotic). It represents about 2 to 5% of all bone tumors and over 7% of all ...

Hemangiomas are defined as benign neoplasms originating from vascular endothelial tissue. Intraosseous hemangiomas very rare and account for less than 1% of bone tumors. They mostly seen in vertebras, skull bones long bones. jaws. typically asymptomatic grow slowly. In this case report, intraosseous hemangioma was found the mandible patient evaluated clinically, radiologically histopathological...

introduction: few studies on benign soft tissue tumors of oral cavity have been conducted in an iranian population. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of the benign soft tissue tumors of the oral cavity in three central pathology centers of rasht, iran. materials and methods: in this retrospective study, all benign soft tissue tumors of the oral cavity, were retrieved from...

Cemento-ossifying fibromas are benign lesions of the jaw, which arise from the periodontal membrane. Histopathologically these are composed of fibrous tissues with calcified structures resembling bone and cementum. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice. They have rarely been reported in the ethmoid sinus, maxillary sinus and sphenoid sinus Mastoid bone is an extremely rare site of such ...

SUMMARY Hemangioendotheliomas are rare vascular tumors that can affect bone. They account for 0.5% to 1.0% of malignant primary bone tumors. Only four cases have been reported involving the temporal bone. A 5-year-old child with grade II hemangioendothelioma of the right temporal bone is presented, and the radiologic findings on different imaging studies are described. The patient was treated w...

canal tumors and, most commonly, metastases. The most common primary malignant bone tumor is chordoma, and the second most common is giant cell tumor. The presence of multiple lesions involving the sacrum and other bones suggests metastasis or multiple myeloma. Although the imaging findings of sacral tumors are nonspecific, a patient’s age and sex, and specific findings such as calcification or...

A brown tumor is a benign fibrotic, erosive bony lesion caused by localized, rapid osteoclastic turnover, resulting from hyperparathyroidism. Although brown tumors are one of the most pathognomonic signs of primary hyperparathyroidism, they are rarely seen in clinical practice. In this report, we present a case of 20-year-old woman with recurrent fractures and bone pain. Plain digital radiograp...
