[Mandibular bone tumors. Diagnostic difficulties].
A session of the "Société de Stomatologie et de Chirurgie maxillo-faciale de France" was devoted to a discussion of diagnostic difficulties in cases of mandibular bone tumors. Several case-reports were presented as a basis for comments on clinical and radiologic criteria of the benign or malignant nature of bone tumors, these being the foundation on which to establish the most effective surgical approach to adopt. Pre-operative biopsy is not considered essential when confirmation of diagnostic has been obtained.
