Abstract

Scleroderma is an autoimmune connective tissuedisorder which is characterized by fibrosis of visceralorgans, skin and blood vessels. This condition canbe localized or systemic. Its estimated prevalenceis 250 cases in a million and it is more common inwomen than in men. Resorption of the mandibularangle and coronoid process can be observed inpatients with scleroderma. Pressure of fibrousmucocutaneous tissues is thought to be the cause ofthe resorption. Decreased number of wrinkles dueto sclerosis and distinct facial features because ofthe atrophy of ala nasi are among common clinicalcharacteristics of this condition. The aim of this casereport is to present a 40-year-old female patient withscleroderma who presented with signs of resorptionat the angle of mandible, coronoid process, as wellas widening of the periodontal space.

Özet

Skleroderma, derinin iç organların ve kan damarlarının fibrözleşmesi ile karakterize, genel olarak lokal ve sistemik olmak üzere ikiye ayrılan bir bağ dokusu hastalığıdır. Prevalansı bir milyonda 250 olarak tahmin edilen skleroderma, kadınlarda erkeklere oranla daha sık görülür. Alt çene angulus mandibula ve koronoid çıkıntılarda rezorpsiyonun görülebildiği sklerodermada, buna fibrozise uğrayan mukokütanöz dokuların baskısının neden olduğu düşünülmektedir. Skleroza bağlı olarak kırışıklıkların kaybolması ve burun kıkırdaklarının rezorpsiyonu nedeniyle yüz görünümünün değişmesi bu hastalığın belirgin klinik özelliklerindendir. Bu olgu bildirisinde skleroderma tanısı almış olan 40 yaşındaki kadın hastanın panoramik radyografisinde sağ angulus ve koronoid çıkıntı bölgesinde görülen rezorpsiyonlar ve periodontal membrandaki genişlemeler sunulmuştur
