A Stafne s cavity with unusual location in the mandibular anterior area Belmonte-Caro R; Velez-Gutierrez MJ; Garcia De La Vega-Sosa FJ; Garcia-Perla-Garcia A; Infante-Cossio PA; Diaz-Fernandez JM; Torres-Carranza EMed Oral Patol Oral Cir Bucal 2005[Mar]; 10 (2): 173-9The typical Stafne's cavity, located on the posterior portion of the mandible, is a relatively uncommon entity. However, when the defect is located in the anterior region of the mandible, it is quite rare, having thus far been described in only 36 cases in the scientific literature. Most of these defects appear in the fifth and sixth decades of life, are localized to the area of the canines and premolars, and have a predilection for males. The inferior dental canal, one of the anatomical-radiographic landmarks that aid in the diagnosis of Stafne's cavity in the posterior region, is rarely present anterior the mental foramen. For this reason, because of its more variable radiographic appearance compared to the posterior defect, its tendency to be superimposed over the apices of the teeth, and the rarity of its localisation to the anterior mandible, it is much more difficult to establish a definitive diagnosis of a Stafne's cavity in this location. It is therefore more likely that a diagnostic error can occur, especially early on. We present a new case in a 68-year-old male in which the diagnosis was serendipitous, and we review in particular the aetiology and pathogenesis, clinical aspects, and differential diagnoses for this condition.|Aged[MESH]|Cellulose, Oxidized/therapeutic use[MESH]|Cuspid[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Hemostatics/therapeutic use[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Incisor[MESH]|Jaw Cysts/complications/*pathology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Mandibular Diseases/complications/*pathology[MESH]|Oral Hemorrhage/drug therapy/etiology[MESH]|Salivary Gland Diseases/complications/pathology[MESH]|Sublingual Gland/pathology[MESH] |
