Etiopathogenesis of the pathologic lesions forms the basis for formulation of appropriate intervention and further prevention. There is still a vast unknown field that has to be explored to know the causative reason behind certain benign & malignant lesions. Idiopathic bone defects are nonodontogenic pseudocystic cavities that are seen in the long bones & jaw bones. Radiographic interpretation is at times inadequate in diagnosis of odontogenic & nonodontogenic radiolucent lesions involving jaw bones. Histopathology has different criteria to segregate this lesion. In this paper, we discuss a case of type B histopathological variant of idiopathic bone defect that may suggest an alternative pathogenesis from type A variant.

With the development of tissue engineering, bone defects, such as fractured long bones or cavitary lesions, may be efficiently repaired and reconstructed using bone substitutes.

One of the biggest problems associated with the repair of trauma in long bones is their requirement to withstand greater mechanical stress than any other bones of the body. After the success we achieved with composite hydroxylapatite (HA)/plaster(PP) in craniofacial bone repair in approximately 200 animals (cats and rats) and 300 humans in our laboratory, clinics and surgeries, it was felt that an area which could perhaps benefit from our experience in bone repair might be orthopedic surgery. When first informed of our desire to apply our biomaterials interest and experience to long bone trauma patients, others expected little success with these biomaterials that were so successful in craniofacial surgery.We felt, however, that success might be achieved for long bone repair with plaster of Paris (CaSO4·½H2O) and/or calcium phosphate. The feeling of my laboratory received some support from Larry Hench's 1988 article. In this article he pointed out that bioactive ceramics such as hydroxylapatite (HA) possibly could bond to bone.
