The advent and widespread development of endonasal endoscopic techniques have recently expanded the frontiers of skull base surgery. The reduced invasiveness, wider and adjustable visualization of the operative field, and lack of postoperative cosmetic defects are well-known advantages of the endonasal endoscopic approaches compared with traditional surgical exposures both in adults and in children. The need to avoid disruption of facial growth centers and permanent tooth roots represents a further special consideration in favor of these endoscopic techniques in children. The authors report on a case of solitary myofibroma involving the ethmoid, mesial orbits, and anterior skull base with intracranial intradural expansion in a 17-month-old girl. The occurrence of such proliferative disease along the skull base is exceedingly rare. The tumor was successfully excised via an endoscopy-assisted cranionasal approach in which a transcranial microsurgical exposure was combined with endonasal endoscopic access to ensure a radical resection and optimize skull base reconstruction. To the authors' knowledge, the patient in this case is the youngest reported patient in the literature who has undergone treatment with this surgical strategy. The outcome in this patient underscores the feasibility and safety of endoscopic endonasal surgery even in toddlers and early childhood.

Effects on bone remodeling have been attributed to epidermal growth factor (EGF). Sialoadenectomy (SX) removes the major source of EGF in rodents and decreases both salivary and serum EGF levels. EGF effects on rat alveolar bone remodeling manifested by molar drift (MD) and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) were examined using the following two approaches: 1) EGF depletion by SX and replacement by orally administered EGF (50 micrograms.animal-1.day-1); 2) sham rats supplemented with matching amounts of EGF. MD and OTM were measured using cephalometric radiographs; bone formation was measured histomorphometrically using tetracycline labeling. Normal MD was not detected after SX, and alveolar bone formation was significantly reduced both around the tooth and in nondental sites. Replacement EGF given to SX rats and supplemental EGF administered to sham rats changed the direction and enhanced the rate of MD. A mesially directed orthodontic force applied to the molars of SX animals increased bone formation on the distal aspect of the tooth roots. Supplemental EGF did not significantly affect OTM. EGF affects alveolar bone remodeling, as manifested clinically by alterations in normal maxillary MD.

ABSTRACT The simple bone cyst,or traumatic bone cyst, solitary or idiopathic bone cavity is an intraosseous pseudocyst discovered through a panoramic radiographic examination. Commonly, the SBC is presented as an asymptomatic lesion, radiolucent, unilocular, without cortical expansion, with margins adorning vital tooth roots of the affected region. The literature has recommended that clinical and radiographic aspects of simple bone cyst are quite convincing as to diagnosis, so follow-up through clinical and radiographic examination has been suggested. This case illustrates an exuberant clinical case of simple bone cyst, which was presented as multilocular and expansive lesion in a 7-year-old patient. Surgical exploration was performed because her parents were anxious about the presumptive diagnosis of other more aggressive lesions. The diagnosis of SBC was confirmed. The case was monitored and, after three years, total bone remodeling of the affected area was observed. In conclusion, asymptomatic radiolucent lesions that suggest a strong presumptive diagnosis of a simple bone cyst can be clinically and radiographically monitored. However, clinical variations, as in the present clinical case, require confirmation of the diagnosis, which is performed through exploratory surgery. The establishment of the diagnosis affords the safest approach for both the professional and the patient.
