概要 OBJECTIVE:Surgery is the standard treatment for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). However, there are few reports on the appropriate extent of the bone resection. This pilot study explores the feasibility of a new method for estimating the extent of resection using bone single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)-standardized uptake value (SUV).METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed 8 MRONJ patients who underwent curettage (n = 2), curettage with removal of the separated sequestrum (n = 2), or marginal resection (n = 4) as part of extensive surgery. The resected regions were compared with the regions estimated using SPECT-SUV. The agreement between the SPECT cold region and the resected region was evaluated using the Dice coefficient (defined as the ratio of 2 × overlap volume to resected volume plus SPECT cold region volume), overlap ratio, and volume ratio. The inclusion of CT findings (osteolytic, gap- and irregular-type periosteal reactions, and mixed-type osteosclerosis) in the estimated region was also evaluated. Additionally, histopathological findings from 3 marginal resection cases were used to validate the estimated region.RESULTS:In all cases, the resected region included the cold regions observed on bone SPECT, with radiotracer accumulation confirmed around the resected region. CT-osteolytic regions were included within the estimated region. The Dice coefficient was 0.53 ± 0.10, the overlap ratio was 86.7 ± 7.2%, and the volume ratio was 235.0 ± 74.7%. Histopathological analysis revealed significant osteocyte necrosis in cold regions, whereas areas with an SUV of 9 displayed normal osteocytes, newly formed bone, and mild inflammatory cell infiltration.CONCLUSION:This study suggests that the setting of the SPECT-cold region using bone SPECT-SUV may allow for the estimation of the extent of resection in early-to-intermediate-stage MRONJ.
