pubmed-article:8488022 | pubmed:abstractText | Central hemangioma of the mandible is a relatively rare condition; when it occurs, the clinical and radiographic presentation are often nonspecific. A proper diagnosis can be made with a high level of clinical suspicion, and imaging studies such as angiography can confirm the suspicion that a vascular lesion exists and can contribute valuable information to the preoperative data base. We report three cases of central hemangioma of the mandible demonstrating the variability of signs and symptoms and review the various treatment alternatives in the literature. We suggest that the treatment of choice for this entity is surgery, including reconstruction as necessary. | lld:pubmed |
