– AP and Lateral: – radiographs are assessed for frx locations, displacement, alignment; – lateral plateau is convex from front to back & side to side, whereas medial one is concave; – lateral plateau is higher than medial one, which indicates amount of plateua … Read more
– Discussion: – large radiolucent lesion surrounded by distinct margin of reactive bone; – often the lesion is eccentric; – cortical thinning, endosteal erosion, and trabecularization, or bony septation, of the cavity are associated findings; – lesion will aggressively destroy medullary and cortical bone; … Read more
