title: [Differential diagnosis and therapy of chronic mandibular osteomyelitis].
abstract: It is often very difficult to differentiate between chronic osteomyelitis and osteogenic sarcoma which present rather similar clinical and radiological findings. In cases of doubt, the diagnosis must be confirmed by a biopsy. As therapy of chronic mandibular osteomyelitis, active surgery becomes more and more important.
