Abstract
Twenty-one patients with diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis (DSO) of the mandible were investigated and treated in Göteborg. Sixteen of these patients (twelve women and four men) participated in a long-term follow-up study in order to evaluate different therapeutic procedures. Cortisone was found to be a valuable aid to the therapy arsenal. Clinical and radiographic observations are presented. Etiology, therapy, and prognosis of DSO are discussed.
