Abstract EN
Orocutaneous fistula (OCF) (of dental origin) is an uncommon but well-described condition in the literature.
These are often misdiagnosed by physicians and dentists.
Careful selection of investigating modality is important in case of diagnostically challenging cases.
A 19-year-old female came with a complaint of a lesion on the chin reported with h/o trauma with the impact on chin presented as diagnostic dilemma because of unusual case history and clinical examination.
Commonly used radiographic investigations like IOPA and orthopantomograph did not resolve the dilemma whereas advanced imaging modality like CT scan, 3D volume imaging, and contrast enhanced CT played an important role in the diagnosis of OCF and selecting the treatment plan.
