Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: Osteoblastoma is quite rare in the oromaxillo-facial region, while the mandible is always the predilection. However, in our case, the lesion was located in the left temporal articular tubercle, involving the adjacent skull base, which is extremely rare in the literature. Case reports: It had been diagnosed as the most common temporomandibular joint disorder in the local hospital before the patient came to our department, mainly due to the primary symptom, that was, the patient got pain in the left temporomandibular joint area while opening the mouth. However, we found a mass of bone lesions at the left temporal articular tubercle in MRI and cone beam CT, and it turned out to be an osteoblastoma after surgery. The patient's primary symptom disappeared after recovering from the surgery, and there have been no indications of complication or recurrence up to now. Conclusion: Osteoblastoma is very rare in the temporomandibular joint region. It could easily miss the possibility of a benign tumor due to its unusual location and confusing chief complaint in this case. Our report provides experience in the identification of osteoblastoma in rare sites.
