Langerhans Cell histiocytosis is a rare multisystem disease originating from dendritic cell lines primarily characterized by osteolytic lesion of the skeleton. Chemotherapy along with bisphosphonates have been used to control the progression of the disease and prevent the osteolysis associated with the disease. Bisphosphonate osteonecrosis of the jaws is a common finding following treatment with bisphosphonates for osteoporosis, metastatic tumors to the bone or the osteolytic lesions of multiple myeloma. The article highlights a rare case of bisphosphonate osteonecrosis of the mandible in a case of long-standing Langerhans cell histiocytosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
