Abstract: | Osteoma is a benign osteogenic lesion, composed by compact or cancellous bone. Its etiology seems to be unknown but some authors have suggested three theories to its elucidation: developmental; infectious; and traumatic. It presents slow growing and it can be normally found in craniofacial region and rarely in other bones. The diagnosis is made incidentally because there is no pain complaining. It is reported here, the occurrence of this pathology in dermis region, not previously found in literature. A 31 years old man, come to fhe Oral and Maxillofacial Service complaining about a painless swelling in his face. Due to clinical and radiographic findings a possible diagnosis of osteoma in right zygomatic bone region, was made. |
