    Tori and exostoses are benign bony protuberances that arise from bone surfaces in the oral cavity. The etiology of these growths has been implicated as multifactorial, but no consensus has been reached so far. These painless overgrowths seldom present as a complaint in the dental office unless functional or esthetic complications set in, and there is a fear for cancer. Here we discuss two rare cases where bony overgrowths present in the mouth were extensive and multiple.

    A hitherto undescribed group of lesions consisting of cystic bony lesions, exostosis, fibromatous lesion, unilateral tonsillar hypertrophy, epidermoid cyst (cholesteatoma) and hyperplasia of the mandible confined to the left side of the face is reported. The case may represent a variant of the Proteus syndrome.

    The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of torus palatinus and torus
    mandibularis in Malaysians. The objectives are to evaluate the incidence of tori according to
    ethnicity, to assess the incidence of tori according to gender and to determine the incidence of
    torus palatinus vs torus mandibularis. (Copied from article).

    We report a case of vertebral osteochondroma of C1 causing cord compression and myelopathy in a patient with hereditary multiple exostosis. We highlight the importance of early diagnosis and the appropriate surgery in order to obtain a satisfactory outcome.

    The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence, size, shape, and location of torus palatinus (TP) and torus mandibularis (TM), and to assess their sex-related and age-related differences in the Malay population. Sixty-five subjects were assessed for the presence of both tori at the School of Dental Sciences University Sains Malaysia. The prevalence of TP was 38-63% and that of TM was 1-10%. TP was frequently more common in females than males (90.9% versus 9.1%; P < 0.05) and was frequently found in medium sizes, spindle shaped, and was often located at the combined premolar to molar areas. The prevalence of TM was not significantly different in males and females (33.3% versus 66.7%; P = 0.523), occurred most commonly in bilateral multiple form, and was often located at the canine to premolar area.

    Hip geometry abnormalities found in patients with hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) could promote premature hip joint degeneration which needs treatment. We report the case of a 45-year old male with right hip arthrosis who underwent two-incision minimally invasive (MIS-2) total hip arthroplasty (THA), with satisfactory outcome. This technique could be an alternative approach for performing THA in patients with hereditary multiple exostoses.

    Forearm deformity secondary to giant solitary ulna exostosis is rare. We describe a rare presentation of symptomatic solitary giant exostosis involving the entire distal ulna resulting in ulnar bowing of the forearm in a five-year-old boy. The tumour was completely resected and the defect was reconstructed with an allograft wrapped with a free autogenous periosteal tubular sleeve to deliver fresh pluripotential cells for better incorporation and integration. The distal ulna physes was preserved. An osteotomy was performed on the radius to correct the deformity. One year after surgery, the deformity remains corrected with normal bone length and excellent hand function. There is no evidence of local recurrence and the allograft has fully incorporated.

    A common bony protrusion that occurs over the hard palate is sometimes mistaken for a malignancy especially when it is large. This bony growth is a torus palatinus (TP), which is a benign bony prominence over the hard palate. It occurs most commonly in bilateral multiple form, and is often located at the canine to premolar area. A basic knowledge of the assessment and management of TP is important, particularly for the first-line family physician to ensure that the correct information is given to the patient.

    Van Bogaert Scherer Epstein Disease is a rare autosomal recessive condition involving abnormal deposition of cholesterol and cholestanol in various parts of body, various clinical symptoms manifest on different age group, significantly neurological impairment in late presentation. We are reporting a slow learner young lady presented with bilateral painless ankle swelling, our initial clinical impression were torn Achilles tendon or Haglund's deformity. On further detail history taking, it leads us towards this disease and confirmed with biopsy. A proper history taking and assessment can easily diagnose this condition, early treatment can perhaps change the fate of these unfortunate patients.

    Osteopoikilosis is a rare bone dysplasia which is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with a prevalence of less than 0.1 per million.1 It is characterised by dense ovoid or circular spots in cancellous bone which may appear at birth or during skeletal growth. It is usually found in the metaphyseal and epiphyseal regions of long bones, the carpals and tarsals, the end of large turbular bones and around the acetabula. It is clinically asymptomatic and occasionally associated with hereditary multiple exostosis and dermatofibrosis lenticularis disseminata. It is not associated with spontaneous fractures and treatment is unnecessary. However a case of osteosarcoma developing in a man with osteopoikilosis has been reported. The first case of osteopoikilosis was reported in Malaysia four years ago in a 25 years old lady who is also of Indian descent. It would be interesting to know if these two patients are related. Since the bone lesions could easily be mistaken for metastatic disease, it is important that family physicians be aware of the benign nature of this condition.

    Introduction: Oral tori and exostosis are non-pathological bony protuberances seen on the alveolar surfaces of the jaw bones. These are commonly seen on the palatal surfaces of the maxilla [torus palatinus (TP)] and around the premolars in the lingual surface of the mandible [torus mandibularis (TM)]. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to determine the prevalence of tori/exostosis in the Malaysian population.

    Methodology: A total of 2666 patients were examined for the presence of tori and exostosis in the maxilla and mandible and were categorized into TP, TM, and exostosis (facial/labial). Collected data was analysed for obtaining descriptive statistics.

    Results: 882 subjects were noticed with oral tori/exostosis among the population studied with a prevalence rate of 33%. TP was seen more in females (35%), compared to males (20%), and this difference was statistically significant (p value
