We present a clinical case of a 19-year-old male patient from the city of Artigas referred for hard consistency tumors in different areas of the facial area.
The patient had Ollier's disease as the only antecedent to highlight from the general point of view.
The patient underwent: Extraoral and intraoral clinical examinations, as well as radiographic examinations. Intraoral alterations were found: scattered tumefactions, retained and supernumerary teeth.
Biopsy of one of the most prominent tumors corresponding to the area of the right mandibular angle.
From the results of the clinical and radiographic study and the pathological anatomy of the biopsy that reported compact osteoma, a review of the bibliography referring to Ollier's disease was carried out.
From the medical interconsultation with different specialties, a tumor in intestinal rib with severe dysplasia was detected, and a diagnosis of Gardner's Syndrome was made.
Given the characteristics of this syndrome, not only in terms of its treatment in the maxillofacial area but also due to the high number of malignization of the intestinal pathology, it requires permanent medical control as well as the study of direct relatives.
