A total of three sessions were performed. Methods: Patients underwent three sessions of the 675 nm laser with a 1-month interval between sessions. Aim: The potential use of the 675 nm laser has been investigated in the treatment of SD. In such cases, surgical resection may be a beneficial treatment option.īackground: A current popular aesthetic problem, especially among younger women, is striae distensae (SD), also referred to as “stretch marks.”. Distinguishing between pleomorphic adenoma, including diffuse microcalcification of the parotid gland and cartilaginous tumors of the temporomandibular joint, may be sometimes difficult. Using a nerve monitoring system, the tumor was resected with normal tissue of the upper pole of the parotid gland in the same way as for a benign parotid tumor. Fine-needle aspiration cytology did not lead to diagnosis. A magnetic resonance imaging showed a low-signal mass lesion at the parotid gland with some high signals in both T1 and T2. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography CT showed a mass lesion with diffuse calcification or ossification in the upper pole of the parotid gland and areas of poor contrast within. In the anterior part of the right ear, there was a palpable 25 mm tumor, elastic and hard, with poor mobility and without tenderness. One year prior to his visit, a 53-year-old man became aware of swelling in the right cheek region which gradually increased in size. We report a case of a chondroma in the anterior part of the ear. Periarticular chondromas are common in the humerus and femur but rarely occur in the temporomandibular joint.
