Abstract

Chronic osteomyelitis with focal proliferative periostitis resulting from mild irritation or infection is generally called Garré's osteomyelitis. Two cases of this disease that occurred in the mandible of an 11-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy were reported and discussed with review of the literature.<BR>The chief complaint was painless swelling at the mandibular region. The lesions were removed surgically and the pathological findings revealed features of chronic osteomyelitis compatible with Garré's osteomyelitis.
