DE LIMA, Javier et al. Partial parallelized obturator prosthesis in oncological patient. Odontoestomatología [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.25, pp.42-52. ISSN 0797-0374.

Abstract When dealing with neck and head cancer patients, we must consider the many different types of such tumors that appear when conducting histopathologic and anatomic topography assessment. To this we must add etiological or risk factors that will result in various epidemiological and symptomatological characteristics, both regarding the progression of the disease and the prognosis and treatment plan. In this work a clinical case is presented: a 25-year-old female patient who underwent right maxillectomy for an odontogenic myxoma (fibromyxoma) located in her right maxillary sinus. Prosthetic rehabilitation is done with framework obturator prosthesis. The remaining teeth are prepared by creating parallel pillars to obtain a single and accurate axis for insertion and removal

Keywords : Maxillary sinus; Tumors; Obturator; Parallelized pillars.
