[Radiologic aspects of myxoma of the jaws].
Four cases of jaw bones myxoma are described, laying special stress on the radiological appearance. Conventional radiogram showed a typical multilocular osteolytic lesion thinning and expanding the cortical bone. This allowed the authors to correctly diagnose the affection. On the contrary CT, showing a unilocular lesion, offered a far less typical representation of the tumor in the two patients who underwent this examination.
