Zusammenfassung

Mehrere Operationen eines zystischen Befundes der Mandibula waren von Rezidiven gefolgt. Die Läsion erstreckte sich von der primären Lokalisation im linken Unterkiefer bis in die Fossa pterygopalatina, zuletzt die Orbita und die Schädelbasis infiltrierend. Histologische Befunde konnten zu keiner Zeit eine Malignität nachweisen. Aufgrund des schlechten Allgemeinzustands des Patienten, seiner Ablehnung weiterer Operationen und des malignomartigen Wachstumsmusters wurde eine Radiatio durchgeführt. Diese hatte jedoch keinen Effekt bzgl. der Tumorprogression.

Abstract

Several extensive surgical interventions of a cystic lesion in the left mandible were followed by recurrences. The lesion extended from the primary mandibular region into the area of pterygopalatine fossa finally infiltrating the orbital region and the skull base. Histological results could never demonstrate a malignancy with certainty. Due to the patient’s poor general condition, the refusal for further surgical inventions and due to the malignoma-like growth pattern radiation treatment was performed. However, this had no effect on tumor progression.
