摘要
Cherubism is an uncommon, multilocular cystic condition of the jaws. This autosomal dominant, nonneoplastic, fibro-osseous condition of the jaws affects children and is self-limiting. Clinically, it shows up as an expansion or distortion of the jaw together with an unnatural teeth alignment. In their most severe forms, these deformations might cause phonation difficulties, decreased pharynx lumen, visual issues, and psychological effects. This case report describes a case report of two siblings involving the maxilla and the mandible presenting with a painless bilateral symmetrical enlargement. Cherubism is a hereditary condition characterized by nonneoplastic bone lesions that damage the jaws. Surgery should be used to resolve any functional or aesthetically problematic issues. Typically, the surgical procedure is postponed until after puberty.
