title: Myospherulosis. Report of a case.
abstract: A case of myospherulosis, a condition first reported in 1969, is reported following the extraction of mandibular third molars and subsequent placement of Terra-Cortril and Gelfoam into the extraction sites. The lesions were discovered during a periodontal surgical procedure and to the best of our knowledge this is the first such report in the periodontal literature.
