Abstract
The case of an intraosseous leiomyoma in a 57-year-old man is presented. The tumor was incidentally discovered during routine dental X-ray examination as a round, unilocular, radiolucency, measuring approximately 2 × 1.5 cm. Clinical examination revealed a slight swelling of the buccal cortical plate in the edentulous area of the posterior right mandible, and intra-operatively, perforation of the buccal cortical plate was seen. Histological and immunohistochemical examination was diagnostic of solid leiomyoma. One year after surgery the patient is free of residual or recurrent disease. This is the fifteen documented cases of intraosseous leiomyoma reported in the English literature.
