Abstract

Stafne Mandibular Bone Cavity (SMBC) is an asymptomatic bone depression typically seen on the lingual surface of the mandible, often in the posterior region. It was first described by Edward C. Stafne in 1942. Although the etiology is not definitively known, it is thought that the submandibular salivary gland (at the posterior region) or the sublingual salivary gland (at they anterior region) causes bone resorption by exerting pressure on the mandible. SMBC is typically found in males, between the ages of 50-70, and is often detected incidentally on panoramic radiographs. In the case series, radiolucent areas were observed below the mandibular canal in 9 patients; 1 was irregular, 2 were round, and 6 were oval in shape, all with well-defined borders. These structures do not require treatment and are monitored with regular clinical and radiological follow-ups.

Özet

Stafne Mandibular Kemik Kavitesi (SMBC), mandibulanın lingual yüzeyinde genellikle posterior bölgede görülen, asemptomatik bir kemik depresyonudur. İlk kez 1942'de Edward C. Stafne tarafından tanımlanmıştır. Etiyolojisi kesin olarak bilinmemekle birlikte, submandibular tükürük bezinin (posterior bölgede ) veya sublingual tükürük bezinin (anterior bölgede) mandibula üzerinde baskı yaparak kemik rezorpsiyonuna neden olduğu düşünülmektedir. Stafne Mandibular Kemik Kavitesi genellikle erkeklerde, 50-70 yaş aralığında ve panoramik radyografide tesadüfen tespit edilir. Olgu serisinde incelenen 9 hastada radyolusent alanlar mandibular kanalın altında,1 tanesi irregüler, 2 tanesi yuvarlak, 6 tanesi oval şekilde ve belirgin sınırlara sahip olarak gözlemlenmiştir. Tedavi gerektirmeyen bu yapılar, düzenli klinik ve radyolojik takiple izlenir.
