Abstract:
A case of mandibular cystic adenoid carcinoma was observed in a 49-year-old man. After slow progression, the diagnosis was directed to mandibular pseudocystic tumor. The treatment was enucleoresection. Histological findings in this exceptionnal lesion led to a discussion of the radioclinical diagnosis and etiopathogenic features of adenoide cystic carcinoma. The origin of this tumor is hypothesized to be heterotopic salivary inclusion although no histologicaly proof can be provided.
