MAXILLOFACIAL RADIOLOGY Hemifacial hyperplasia

Abstract

A 49-year-old male patient presented to the clinic with a main complaint of a painless swelling of the left mandible that had been present for more than 14 years. On radiological examination, the patient presented with enlargement of the mandibular ramus, angle and corpus on the left, with a normal appearing trabecular bone pattern. The midline deviated to the right, with superior displacement of teeth 43-38 with no associated macrodontia noted (Figures 1,2).
