11/13. Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour or Pindborg's tumour: features and behaviour in relation to a case.The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour (CEOT) or Pindborg's tumour is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm composed of epithelioid cells, amorphous amyloid-like substance and calcifications. Its clinical and radiographical pictures are not characteristic depending upon the site, size and developmental stages in a range of its composition degeneration. A case of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour in the mandible is presented and the main aspects of the research about this tumour, such as the pathogenesis, histological features, developmental stages, malignancy, recurrence rate, differential diagnosis and therapeutic aspects are discussed.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
12/13. Ameloblastomatous calcifying odontogenic cyst in the mandible.ameloblastoma is one of the well-known odontogenic tumours that can be associated with calcifying odontogenic cysts (COCs), but only a few reports include detailed clinical and radiographic features. In this paper we demonstrate a case of large ameloblastomatous COC in the mandible. The radiographic examination revealed the presence of a multilocular cystic lesion in the right posterior part of the mandible containing the impacted lower second molar with remarkable expansion toward both lingual and buccal side. This feature was different from the general findings of COC and rather resembled that of ameloblastomas.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 6keywords = mandible (Clic here for more details about this article) |
