A Case of Multiple Osseous Dysplasia with Simple Bone Cysts in the Jaw

Abstract

We report a case of multiple osseous dysplasia with simple bone cysts in the jaw bones of both sides of the maxillary molar part, right maxillary front tooth part and part from the right lower second molar to the left lower second molar part, with long-term follow-up. The patient was a 61-year-old woman. Although she had no subjective symptoms, the patient underwent surgery because the simple bone cysts tended to enlarge during the 18-year follow-up period. The surgical treatment consisted of cystic fluid evacuation, filling the cavity with blood, and primary closure. After repeated surgery, the simple bone cysts of the patient eventually filled with normal bone tissue. We therefore consider this treatment to be effective.
