Abstract :

Abstract Clinicians still have a diagnostic problem when it comes to mandibular lesions, which can arise from both odontogenic and non-odontogenic structures and represent a wide range of lesions with varied degrees of malignant potential. Often, jaw abnormalities present in a nonspecific manner where clinical findings are not sufficient, making imaging of utmost importance in elucidating the cause of the symptoms. Although imaging results may not result in a particular diagnosis, they can restrict the differential diagnosis and guide further therapeutic steps. We are presenting a case of a 45 years old female patient with painless slow growing non-inflammatory lesion in mandibular anterior region with bicortical expansion emphasizing the aspects that aid in the differential diagnosis; correlating the clinical findings, imaging findings and histological features to reach up to the diagnosis.
