A rare peripheral dentinogenic ghost cell tumor case is presented. This neoplasm, typically central, shows rare peripheral origins, with only 3 verified cases in literature.

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Odontogenic tumors
  • Neoplasia

Background:

  • Dentinogenic ghost cell tumor (DGCT) is a rare odontogenic neoplasm.
  • These tumors typically arise centrally within the jawbones.
  • Understanding tumor origin is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

Observation:

  • A unique case of a peripheral dentinogenic ghost cell tumor originating outside the jawbone is detailed.
  • The tumor exhibited common features of mucosal infiltration.
  • Verification of peripheral origin was challenging.

Findings:

  • A review of English literature identified 10 cases of DGCT, encompassing both central and peripheral origins.
  • Only 3 of the reported cases were definitively verified as having a peripheral origin.

  • This highlights the rarity of peripheral DGCT compared to central occurrences.

    • Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of DGCT presentation and origin.
    • It emphasizes the need for thorough diagnostic evaluation to differentiate central from peripheral lesions.
    • Further research into the etiology and behavior of peripheral odontogenic tumors is warranted.
