Hemifacial microsomia and hypodontia: a case report.

A 6-year-old girl with hemifacial microsomia was examined. Abnormalities found were: severely malformed pinna of the right ear, right malar hypoplasia and unilateral mandibular hypoplasia. Dental examination revealed normal intraoral soft tissues with all deciduous teeth present. Radiographic examination disclosed that the maxillary and mandibular right and left second premolars were not developing. The mandibular ramus was short in length and the mandibular condyle had not developed on the right. The patient had no renal, cardiac or skeletal anomalies and her hearing was normal. No previous publications have been located which report the association of hypodontia and hemifacial microsomia.

Anodontia↗

[Myxofibroma of the mandible].

In this article, a rare case of large myxofibroma of the mandible has been presented. The odontogenic myxoma originated from the mesenchym ise benign and can be arised from dental papilla, dental follicle or the periodontal ligament. Myxoma is mostly located in maxilla or mandible and accompanied by an unerupted tooth and can be seen in the second or third decade of the life. It is painless and uncapsulated and the growth of tumor is slow. Since it is uncapsulated, recurrence is about 25%. Myxoma can be confused radiologically with benign or malign lesions of jaws which are radiolucent in nature. Curretting, cauterization and resection are methods of treatment and the prognosis is good.
