Haemophilic pseudotumours of the mandible: report of a case in a one-year-old child.

Pseudotumours of bone are an uncommon complication of severe haemophilia and only seven cases occurring in the mandible have been reported previously in the English literature. If treated early the condition appears to have a better prognosis and so it should be included in the differential diagnosis of any slowly progressive swelling of hard and soft tissues occurring in a patient with severe haemophilia. However aspiration and biopsy should be avoided if possible. Previous authors have advocated a variety of invasive procedures for this condition. A further case is described which is unique in the age at which the bilateral lesions developed, in the successful outcome of conservative management and in the dental observations.
