Abstract

Aim: The current in vivo investigation aimed to evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonography and color Doppler performed in the diagnosis of intraosseous jaw lesions.

Materials and methods: A total of 30 patients with intraosseous jaw lesions between the ages of 12 and 60 were selected for the present study. For every jaw lesion, a preliminary diagnosis was done using preoperative conventional radiographs. A sonologist evaluated the preoperative ultrasound examination and color Doppler images to determine the lesion's content, vascular supply, and preliminary classification was made as either a cyst or a tumor. The tissue was curetted during the surgical procedure to facilitate the histological examination. Every measurement and result were compared, and a statistical analysis was performed.

Results: On ultrasound and color Doppler examination out of 8 solid lesions, 2 (25%) were non-vascular and 6 (75%) were vascular.11 (64.7%) out of 17 cystic lesions were non-vascular and 6 (35.3%) were vascular. About 2 (66.7%) out of 3 complex lesions were non-vascular and 1 (33.3%) was vascular. And out of 2 Inconclusive lesions 1 (50%) was vascular and another 1 (50%) was non-vascular. There was a statistically significant difference found between color Doppler and ultrasound characteristics (0.001). Histopathological examination determined that 8 (100%) solids were diagnosed as the tumor. And 8 (47.1%) out of 17 cystic lesions were diagnosed as the tumor and 9 (52.9%) as cysts on histopathological examination. Out of 3 complex lesions 2 (66.7%) lesions were diagnosed as the tumor and 1(33.3%) as cysts. And 2 cases which were inconclusive were diagnosed as cysts and 1 tumor each. There was no statistically significant difference found between histopathological characteristics and ultrasound characteristics (p = 0.081).

Conclusion: The current investigation came to the conclusion that ultrasound can reliably distinguish between a cyst and a tumor and provide correct information about the pathological nature of a jaw lesion.

Clinical significance: Ultrasound has been a crucial diagnostic tool for numerous medical specialties. It is simple to use and can provide a detailed representation of soft tissues. Furthermore, it facilitates the accurate localization of samples when necessary and the evaluation of the solid and cystic components of lesions.
