Aim:
Chimenos-Kustner et al.and Wijn et al: the importance of an early diagnosis of Gardner’s syndrome through the detection of lesions appearing in the oral and maxillofacial area.
Introduction:
familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and Gardner’s syndrome were considered as a single condition and classified under a single OMIM number (OMIM
175000) which describes Gardner’s syndrome as a variant of FAP.
a family with intestinal polyposis and multiple bony and soft tissue tumors which were subsequently characterized as multiple osteomas, cutaneous and
subcutaneous fibromas, and epidermoid cysts.
The triad of osteomas, soft tissue lesions, and FAP has now been expanded to include other lesions, including desmoids tumors, retinal pigmentation, carcinomas, sebaceous cysts, gastric and upper intestinal adenomas, pancreaticobiliary adenomas, hepatoblastomas, and dental abnormalities.
Turcot et al.: malignant central nervous system tumors were associated with FAP
Oral and maxillofacial symptoms of FAP include an increased risk of osteomas in the jaws, odontomas, supernumerary, or unerupted teeth.
The oral and maxillofacial hallmark of Gardner’s syndrome is the osteoma.
(mandible, but they may occur in the skull, long bones, and paranasal sinus cavities.)
Takeuchi et al.: oral and maxillofacial lesions in 22 of 23 patients with Gardner’s syndrome.
Case Report: (CASE 1)
A 25-year-old Caucasian man was referred by an endodontist for evaluation of a dental abscess in tooth #47 that had been treated.
P.I.:
several previous surgeries for removal of “sebaceous cysts” in his body.
suffered from occasional rectal bleeding and mucus discharge with
defecation.
Family History:
father and brother had died “with bowel cancer.”
12-year-old niece was presenting several symptoms of Gardner’s syndrome
P.E.:
A 3 cm mobile subcutaneous nodule on his scalp
Multiple painless hard masses on the mandible and skull were present. The largest palpable hard mass was located on the left mandibular angle.
various submucosal hard masses, mainly in the mandibular external cortex.
A small round pearllike structure was observed in the right molar region.
Panoramic radiograph findings:
Cotton wool-like radiopaque images in both the maxilla and mandible and
maxillary sinus (yellow arrows). Round or ovoid dense radiopaque images were in the temporomandibular areas and in the left mandibular angle (white arrows).
Computed tomography:
Several well circumscribed radiopaque area were detected in the ethmoid region and in the nasal walls near the upper conchae and zigomatic areas, sphenoid bone, skull base, and bilateral temporomandibular joint condyles and the maxilla.
Colonoscopy examination:
Numerous polyps carpeting the colon but the rectum was relatively polyp free. A small ulcerating mass was found in the distal portion of the colon.
Histologic examination:
Adenocarcinoma --A colectomy and an ileorectal anastomosis were
performed by general surgeons.
Microscopic examination of the colon confirmed more than 50 adenomatous polyps, none of which had undergone malignant change.
Patient was proposed to surgically remove some of the bony masses of the mandible-- refused.
Two years later, a spontaneous elimination of a 3 x 5 mm bony fragment from the right mandibular molar region, resulting in a periodontal pocket in the first molar.
Histologically, the specimen showed trabeculae of lamellar bone with a fibrofatty marrow, confirming the diagnostic of peripheral osteoma.
(CASE 2):
A 12-year-old Caucasian girl presented for consultation with a history of progressive difficulty with mouth opening but no complaints of digestive problems.
A panoramic radiograph showed multiple radiopacities in the maxilla and mandible. Some were diffuse (right mandibular body, left and right maxillary tuberosities) with a cotton-wool appearance while others were well circumscribed (left mandibular angle).
Multiple impacted teeth were also present.
Extensive tumor located in the left mandibular angle.
A colonoscopy was suggested, but the patient’s parents refused.
Discussion:
FAP is the most common polyposis syndrome with a prevalence of about 1 in 8,000.
In general, the cutaneous and bone abnormalities develop approximately 10 years prior to polyposis.
Polyp formation starts at puberty but diagnosis is usually in the third decade.
Unless surgical transaction is performed, gastrointestinal polyps may progress to malignancy in almost 100% of patients (rates vary from 58%-100%).
Progression to malignancy is usually observed in patients aged 30 to 50 years. The average age by which malignancy is diagnosed is 39.2 years.
Summary:
Since osteoma formation (the most common accompanying bone lesion seen in Gardner’s syndrome) and other maxillofacial abnormalities usually precede polyposis, the general dental practitioner may be the first healthcare professional to suspect the diagnosis.
Panoramic radiography is the most useful technique for screening patients and affected family members since it can demonstrate subtle opacities at an early age.
All first and second degree relatives of patients with FAP should be evaluated for the possibility of Gardner’s syndrome because an early diagnosis of this disease can lead to a better prognosis for the patient.
