Abstract
A rare case of tuberculous osteomyelitis of the mandible presenting as an aggressive, sequestrating lesion of the symphyseal area in a 26-year-old Eritrean woman is reported. The patient had disseminated tuberculosis, and all but the oral lesion responded well to chemotherapy. Upon sequestrectomy and decortication uneventful healing of the mandibular lesion took place.Entities:
