Osteosarcoma associated with cemento-osseous dysplasia: co-incidence or two related entities?
Article in Oral radiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundOsteosarcoma of the jaws is a rare primary malignant tumor of bone. The clinical, radiological and histopathological features of a case associated with cemento-osseous dysplasia is presented. CASE REPORT: A 57-year-old mixed-race female presented with a large, progressive, swelling of the right mandible. Radiographic examination revealed two associated lesions. Partially defined irregular radiopacities were noted in the left mandible, extending from the premolar to the molar region. The lesion had a cotton-wool appearance and resembled a fibro-osseous lesion; i.e. cemento-osseous dysplasia. A second large, expansive and irregular, radiopaque lesion was noted on the right angle of the mandible, extending beyond the inferior cortex of the mandible. The internal structure was heterogeneous and resembled irregular bone formation. The classic "sunburst" appearance of radiating bony spicules can be seen in the posterior-anterior view and the CBCT 3D reconstruction, indicating the outgrowth of the tumor matrix. Histopathological exam confirmed a final diagnosis of osteosarcoma closely associated with cemento-osseous dysplasia. The patient underwent a fludeoxyglucose-18 (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scan which indicated metastasis in the left lung and increased uptake in the right mandible. Chemotherapy was initially administered with a plan to resect the tumor, however, the patient demised as a result of medical complications.
conclusionThe question in the literature remains whether these two entities are coincidentally found or arise from each other. Nevertheless, it is important for clinicians to closely monitor patients with cemento-osseous dysplasia and biopsy any suspicious lesions that may develop into osteosarcoma.
