Chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis of the mandible. Histologic and histochemical findings.
The histologic features of chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis of the mandible were studied. Four different types of tissue reaction were found to be characteristic of the disease. Histochemical recordings were used in an attempt to facilitate differential diagnosis. Similar types of fibro-osseous lesions and biopsy technique are discussed.
