[Benign tumors and pseudotumor of the maxilla in children].

The underlying causes in series of benign tumours and pseudo-tumours and cysts of the maxillary bone observed in children over a ten-year period in the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul Hospital in Paris are reported. Besides the frequently encountered odontogenic cysts, most cases involved aneurysmal cysts and benign odontogenic tumours, as well as rare tumours including a hydatic cyst. Several lesions were discovered on a panoramic X ray performed for orthodontal survey.

[The advantages and limits of the use of desmopressin (Minirin) in stomatology. Apropos 2 young female patients presenting with von Willebrand's disease].

The authors describe two cases of wisdom tooth germ removal in female adolescents presenting with von Willebrand's disease. The effect of the Minirin injection was studied during a preoperative test and allowed carrying out the operation with normalized hemostasis, without using substitution factors and with no postoperative complications. The authors specify the indications and limitations of the use of desmopressin before surgery.

[Complete luxation of the upper incisor. Analysis of the mid-term results. Treatment of sequelae].

The study involved 18 children aged 7 to 13 years, who all benefited from early reimplantation and appropriate immobilisation. Radicular treatment appeared to have little influence and adverse results, especially early rhizalysis, were common (50% versus 30% of good results). In the event of failure, dento-facial orthopedic treatment, where indicated, may provide a cosmetically acceptable solution.

[Facial asymmetry due to polycystic-like mandibular fibrous dysplasia. Apropos of a case].

The authors relate one case of fibrous dysplasia limited to one bone and affecting the lower jaw, bilaterally. They put a stress on the slow evolution of the disease, as well as the diagnostic importance of the histological findings. Commenting on this case, they present a review of the main manifestations of this condition.

[Oral manifestations of Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis. Apropos of a case].

A case of Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis of predominantly buccal localization is reported, lesions being apparent on gums and tongue. The rareness of such localizations is emphasized, results of surgical excision and histology of lesions described and manifestations of the disease outlined.

[Untimely extraction in mandibular sarcoma. Apropos of 2 cases].

Two patients with chondrosarcoma and fibrosarcoma of the mandible respectively were seen after abusive extraction of first molars from the tumoral regions. It is essential to recognize presenting signs of mandibular tumors since dental extractions are contraindicated in these cases. These untimely procedures increase the delay between the onset of the first clinical signs, the diagnosis, and the start of therapy, and thus make for a poorer prognosis.

[An orthodontic pitfall: the upper wisdom teeth].

The authors describe an orthodontic pitfall which has been more frequently observed during the last few years. They analyse the reasons for this increase and give their point of view about this practical problem. They propose solutions based on a wide experience in the hospital. The value of this article is increased by the essential iconography.
