The first case, a 17-year-old female, was introduced to our department by a dental practitioner because of a large radiographic defect of the bone. The patient had no subjective symptoms. The defect extended between 3 and the ascending ramus, and had multilocular radiolucency associated with bone expansion. The Marsupialization and curettage of the defect were performed. One year after the surgery, the defect was filled with new bone. The second case, a 14-year-old male, complained of occlusal pain in the anterior mandible. Irregular and unilocular radiolucency was seen radiographically in 4 + 2. The biopsy suggested an ossifying fibroma. Extirpation and curettage of the lesion were performed.

To clarify the mechanism behind this phenomenon, irradiation was performed on the ulnar nerve at the elbow joint. The sensation felt during irradiation was reported by the subjects. Changes in temperature of the hand dorsum were thermographically recorded. The evoked peripheral autonomic surface potentials (PASP) were also recorded. 77.3% of the subjects reported sensation changes in the hand; the temperature rose in both hands in 3 out of 5 subjects. The PASPs did not show marked changes in latency or amplitude. It is suggested that the effects of the irradiation are brought about mainly through the stimulation of the central nervous system.</p>","PeriodicalId":77484,"journal":{"name":"Aichi-Gakuin dental science","volume":"2 ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13782215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
