          Abstract

          As osteodistrofias do osso temporal podem se manifestar de diversas maneiras, como envolvimento restrito ao osso temporal ou com envolvimento de outros ossos do crânio ou ainda fazerem parte de uma manifestação sistêmica. Consideramos, em nosso trabalho, duas entidades como osteodistofias raras, a osteopetrose e a doença de Camurati-Engelmann, esta última de incidência extremamente rara, com poucos relatos na literatura. Apresentamos dois casos de osteopetrose em sua forma benigna (doença de Albers-Schöenberg), um paciente de 11 anos e outro de 48 anos, ambos do sexo masculino, e um paciente de 28 anos do sexo feminino com a doença de Camurati-Engelmann (displasia diafisária hereditária progressiva), doenças hereditárias autossômicas que apresentam sintomas diversos. A paralisia facial periférica se manifestou em dois dos nossos pacientes. Discutimos alguns aspectos relacionados às manifestações clínicas destas doenças, achados radiológicos, assim como o diagnóstico diferencial e a conduta terapêutica diante de complicações das doenças.

          Temporal bone osteodysplasia can produce many different symptoms, such as involvement restricted to the temporal bone or impairment of other bones. We consider, in this study two entities that are rare osteodysplasia cases, which are osteopetrosis and Camurati-Engelmann disease, the latter being extremely rare. We present two cases of benign form of osteopetrosis (Albers-Schulenburg's disease), a patient of 11 years old and another one of 48 years old, both male, and a patient of 28 years old, female, with Camurati-Engelmann's disease. The facial palsy was a manifestation in two of the patients. We discuss some aspects about the clinical manifestations, radiological findings, as well as differential diagnostic and therapy in view of the complications of the diseases.

            Facial nerve dysfunction in osteopetrosis.

            J Benecke (1993)
            When facial nerve dysfunction occurs in conjunction with one of the rare temporal bone dysplasias, the physician faces a therapeutic dilemma. There is no consensus in the literature regarding the management of facial paralysis or facial spasm under these circumstances. During the past 2 years, four patients were seen with forms of osteopetroses and neurotologic symptoms. A patient with malignant, recessive osteopetrosis and a patient with Engelmann's disease were surgically managed for facial paralysis and facial spasm. The outcome of the treatment is discussed as well as the available literature on this subject. A new complication of facial nerve decompression in children with osteopetrosis is described, as well as appropriate caveats in the management of facial nerve disorders in the osteopetroses.

              Neurotologic manifestations of the osteopetroses.

              Facial nerve paralysis or symptoms of audiovestibular nerve dysfunction may be the first indication of one of the group of bone diseases known as the osteopetroses. We describe three such patients. The pathophysiology of these diseases and the treatment of the resulting symptoms of facial and audiovestibular nerve dysfunction are discussed.
