Area of Science:

  • Oral Pathology
  • Odontogenic Cysts
  • Head and Neck Surgery

Background:

  • The central calcifying odontogenic cyst (CCOC) is an uncommon odontogenic tumor.
  • Understanding its clinical and histomorphologic characteristics is crucial for diagnosis and management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report on 17 new cases of central calcifying odontogenic cyst (CCOC).
  • To analyze the clinical and histomorphologic features of these CCOC cases.
  • To provide insights into the optimal treatment and follow-up for CCOC.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 17 patient cases diagnosed with CCOC.
  • Review of clinical presentation, radiographic findings, and histopathological features.
  • Assessment of treatment outcomes and follow-up data.

Main Results:

  • CCOC typically presents in the second decade of life.
  • Equal distribution observed between the maxilla and mandible.
  • 35% of cases were associated with odontomas, and 35% with unerupted teeth.
  • Histologically, lesions were predominantly unilocular cysts, with some multilocular or mixed cystic/solid presentations.

Conclusions:

  • Surgical excision is the recommended treatment for CCOC.
  • Long-term follow-up, up to 10 years, is essential after treatment.
  • Early diagnosis and appropriate management are key to successful outcomes.
