    Area of Science:

    • Oral Pathology
    • Odontogenic Cysts and Tumors
    • Maxillofacial Surgery

    Background:

    • Calcifying odontogenic cysts (COCs) can pose diagnostic challenges.
    • Differential diagnosis requires careful clinical and histopathological evaluation.
    • Odontogenic tumors present a spectrum of benign and malignant entities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report a rare case of calcifying odontogenic cyst in the maxilla.
    • To highlight the simultaneous occurrence of COC and ameloblastoma-like features.
    • To document the clinical and histopathological findings and treatment outcome.

    Main Methods:

    • Case presentation of a 54-year-old female patient.
    • Clinical examination and radiographic assessment of a maxillary lesion.

  • Histopathological analysis of the resected tissue.

    • Main Results:

    • The lesion exhibited characteristic calcifying odontogenic cyst features.
    • Simultaneous presence of ameloblastoma-like structures was observed.
    • The lesion was confirmed as benign.
    • Postoperative healing was uneventful with no recurrence at 12 months.

    Conclusions:

    • Calcifying odontogenic cysts can present with complex histopathological features.
    • The simultaneous occurrence of COC and ameloblastoma-like components is possible.
    • Surgical excision is an effective treatment for benign calcifying odontogenic cysts.
