Osteopathia striata with cranial sclerosis (OS-CS) is a bone dysplasia characterized by a linear striated pattern of sclerosis, especially in the long bones, and cranial sclerosis. It has variable clinical findings but distinctive radiological findings. Multiple oral and dental findings have been associated with this disease and can be seen during dental and/or medical imaging of the head and neck. Dentists and clinicians must be familiar with these signs to differentiate them from pathosis or erroneous radiographs. In the following case, we present a patient with OS-CS that presented at The University of Florida College of Dentistry with multiple craniofacial manifestations of this syndrome that were seen on a panoramic radiograph, which is one of the most commonly requested radiographs by dentists.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomally dominant tumor suppressor syndrome and multisystem disease. Central giant-cell granulomas (CGCGs) can be seen in patients with NF1. A 21-year-old female was diagnosed with two CGCGs, one in the mandible and then one in the maxilla, in a 7-year period. Increased incidence of CGCGs in NF1 patients was thought to be caused by an underlying susceptibility to developing CGCG-like lesions in qualitatively abnormal bone, such as fibrous dysplasia. However, germline and somatic truncating second-hit mutations in the NF1 gene have been detected in NF1 patients with CGCGs, validating that they are NF1-associated lesions. Oral manifestations in patients with NF1 are very common. Knowledge of these manifestations and the genetic link between NF1 and CGCGs will enhance early detection and enable optimal patient care.
