Figure 1 Case 1. (A) Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) panoramic reconstruction showing an ill-defined osteolytic lesion in the left edentulous mandibular body (yellow arrow). (B) CBCT axial slice demonstrating the infiltrative nature of the lesion and erosion of the buccal cortical plate (yellow arrow). (C) CBCT cross-sectional images illustrating the moth-eaten pattern of bone destruction (yellow arrow), with cortical erosion and infiltration and involvement of the mandibular canal (red dots). (D) CBCT three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction showing erosion and infiltration of the buccal cortical plate (yellow arrow). (E) Five-year follow-up CBCT panoramic reconstruction showing complete resolution of the osteolytic lesion and restoration of mandibular bone density. (F) Five-year follow-up CBCT axial slice demonstrating reconstitution of the buccal cortical plate. (G) Five-year follow-up CBCT cross-sectional images revealing bone remodeling and a clearly delineated, uninvolved mandibular canal. (H) Five-year follow-up CBCT 3D reconstruction illustrating healing of the previous cortical defect, with a smooth and continuous mandibular surface.
