case_images: However, there was an absence of the lesion bone in the condyle processes, and the cortical bone of the mandibular basis showed normal features (Figure 1).
case_images: Axial CT scan revealing large hypoattenuated heterogenous image with aspect of expansive and invasive, osteolytic, multilocular lesion with perforation of the cortical bone at the angle and ramus of the mandible (Gomes et al.).

case_images: The axial CT scan and the panoramic radiograph showed large and a soap bubble-like cavities at the angle and ramus of the mandible, as well as thin or disrupted vestibular mandibular cortical bone (Figures 2 and 3).
case_images: Panoramic radiograph showing bilateral growth of the lesion in the body, ramus, and coronoid process of mandible, atypical eruptions of the lower third molar, and resorption of the distal root of the left lower first molar (Gomes et al.).

case_images: The axial CT scan and the panoramic radiograph showed large and a soap bubble-like cavities at the angle and ramus of the mandible, as well as thin or disrupted vestibular mandibular cortical bone (Figures 2 and 3).
case_images: Right (a) and left (b) sides of the mandible showing lesion and the cavities without lesion filled by autogenous cancellous bone and bone marrow graft (c) and (d), respectively.

case_images: Discrete number of blood vessels, various bone trabeculae, and osteoid tissue were also present (Figures 4(a) and 4(b)). The multilocular cavities without lesion were totally filled by autogenous cancellous bone and bone marrow grafts (Figures 4(c) and 4(d)), obtained from the patient's iliac crest.
