Summary
This study details a rare combined epithelial odontogenic tumor case. The lesion, initially appearing as an adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, showed features of Pindborg
Area of Science:
- Oral Pathology
- Odontogenic Tumors
- Neoplasms
Background:
- Combined epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a rare entity.
- It presents with histological features of both adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) and Pindborg tumor (calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, CEOT).
Observation:
- A case of CEOT associated with an unerupted maxillary central incisor is presented.
- Clinical and histological examination revealed features suggestive of a primary AOT with areas of secondary CEOT.
Findings:
- The study highlights the diagnostic challenge in differentiating primary CEOT from AOT with secondary calcification.
- Histopathological analysis confirmed the coexistence of typical AOT and Pindborg tumor components.
Implications:
- This case contributes to understanding the spectrum of odontogenic tumors.
- Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management and prognosis of combined epithelial odontogenic tumors.
