1. Osteoma generally asymptomatic
benign neoplasms of bone forming tissue.
Essentially restricted to the craniofacial skeleton
Most in…… young adults
generally asymptomatic

2. 1. periosteal osteoma……a polypoid or sessile mass …… on the surface of the bone
2. endosteal osteoma……..in the medullary bone …… .. in the medullary bone
3.Osteoma cutis…….in the muscle or dermis
The most common gnathic locations ………..body of the mandible
Or the condyle.
most osteomas occur posterior to the premolars on the lingual surface.

3. Condylar osteoma
facial swelling
pain
limited mouth opening

4. Radiographically Circumscribed sclerotic masses Periosteal osteomas
a uniform sclerotic pattern
a sclerotic periphery with a central trabecular pattern or
Smaller endosteal osteomas are difficult, if not impossible to differentiate from foci of sclerotic bone
The true nature of these osteomas continued growth.

5. Osteomas arising in the paranasal sinuses ……
Osteomas arising in the paranasal sinuses …….. sinusitis, headache, or ophthalmologic manifestations

6. Condylar Osteoma

8. Histopathologic Features
1.Compact osteomas
normal-appearing dense bone showing minimal marrow tissue

9. Compact Osteoma Compact Lamellar bone
Normal-appearing dense bone showing minimal marrow tissue

10. Compact bone

11. 2.cancellous osteoma
Trabeculae of bone and fibrifatty marrow

12. bony trabaculae with evidence of fatty marrow spaces

13. a much more cellular and active lesion with areas of loose vascular connective tissue containing irregular bone trabeculae.
Notice the considerable osteoblastic activity..

14. dense and lamellar cortical bone with a focal area of active bone modeling.
