Abstract:
Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an infrequent odontogenic tumor that typically occurs in adolescent females, usually in the anterior maxilla. There is a controversy about it being a tumor or a hamartoma. It presents clinically as a slowly progressive entity that shows a good prognosis with conservative surgical management. It shows three clinicopathological types: follicular, extrafollicular, and peripheral. This article describes a follicular variety of AOT. An 18-year-old female presented with diffuse intraoral swelling in the maxillary anterior region. An intraoral periapical radiograph (IOPA) revealed a single large pericoronal radiolucency related to the impacted right maxillary lateral incisor. Histopathological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis, and the tumor was treated surgically by enucleation.
