[Mandibular condyle lacunae. A report on three cases (aneurysmal cyst, granuloma eosinophil and metastasis) (author's transl)].

Three cases of rare cystic tumors of the mandibular condyles are described: One case concerned a young 17-year-old girl with pain and joint crepitation due to an aneurysmal cyst. In the second case the presence of pain and a swelling led to the discovery of an eosinophil granuloma, with similar lesions in two other locations. A mandibular metastasis from a bronchial epithelioma was present in the third case.
