Bone Formation in Peripheral Giant Cell Granuloma: A Case Report with a First Clinical, Radiographic, Ultrasonographic, Macroscopic, and Histopathologic Comparison
(Journal of Diagnostics and Treatment of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2025-11-30) Demidov, Valentyn; Cherniak, Olha; Fesenko, Ievgen; Fil, Vladyslav; Zaritska, Valentyna; Chernetsova, Alla
Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is one of the benign peripheal reactive lesions of the jaws. Clinically, it is difficult to distinguish from peripheral ossifying fibroma or even metastatic tumor. We report a case of a PGCG in a 64-year-old Caucasian male. Clinically, PGCG presented as a 2.4- × 2-cm saddle-shaped pedunculated lesion of the partially edentulous alveolar ridge of the anterior mandible. The case is unique in that areas of bone formation were noted within the PGCG upon comparison of gray-scale ultrasonography (USG), macroscopic, and histopathological examination. To our knowledge it’s a first ever reported comparison in the medical literature. Indirect ultrasound imaging technique is considered in this article. Prominent intralesional vascularity upon color Doppler USG was proved upon intraoperative step when significant bleeding was noted from soft and bone tissues. Understanding by clinicians of ultrasound patterns in similar cases will facilitate differential diagnosis between alveolar ridge lesions. This paper proves ones again that ultrasound is an essential tool for the oral and maxillofacial surgeons.
Can Articles from the Images Section Be Cited in Journals Indexed in Scopus? Launch of a New Images Section Focused on Digitalization
(Journal of Diagnostics and Treatment of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2025-09-30) Tymofieiev, Oleksii; Fesenko, Ievgen; Fil, Vladyslav
In this editorial, we analyze articles of the “Images” type in other peer-reviewed journals as well as the 6-year experience of publishing such articles in the Journal of Diagnostics and Treatment of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology (JDTOMP). We also describe the experience of citing articles from the JDTOMP and The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) in the Scopus database. This is important for every peer-reviewed publication because one of the notes and conditions for indexing a journal in Scopus is citations of its articles in good journals indexed in Scopus. Taking into account the experience of journal in publishing 19 articles of the Images type, it was decided to expand the direction of publishing short manuscripts, but with a slightly different focus. A new section called “Images: Digital” has been launched, which aims to publish the same ultra-short articles, but not dedicated to pathology, but specifically dedicated to digital solutions in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD): Participation in Peer Group Activities: Two CPD Points
(Journal of Diagnostics and Treatment of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2026-01-31) Tymofieiev, Oleksii; Fesenko, Ievgen; Melikova, Kateryna; Fil, Vladyslav
This article is a continuation of the series of publications on the continuing professional development (CPD) of dentists, oral surgeons, and maxillofacial surgeons, updated according to the Order of the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine of April 16, 2025, No. 650 “On approval of the Procedure for conducting certification of healthcare workers and amending certain orders of the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine.” The purpose of this article is to translate the Order of the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine of May 08, 2025, No. 781 “On approval of the Regulation on peer groups,” the understanding of which is necessary for understanding, organizing and conducting such a CPD event as participation in peer group activity, for which two CPD points are awarded. In general, peer group event is training on the principle of “peer to peer,” which involves the participation of healthcare workers who are equal in position, to increase the level of professional competence by discussing issues of their own professional activities/experience and the professional activities/experience of other healthcare workers. Considering the unique features of peer groups, we consider it appropriate to recommend that a wide range of dentists use this type of CPD.
