Odontogenic Origin

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to report an extrafollicular adenomatoid odontogenic tumor in the mandibular anterior region in a patient. A 15 year-old female with a painless swelling in the mandibular anterior region was referred to our clinic. Fine needle aspiration yielded no fluid. Periapical, panoramic and computer tomography scans showed circumscribed radiolucent area with fine calcifications. The lesion was totally enucleated and the teeth 31, 32 were removed. The rarity of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor may be associated with its slowly growing pattern and symptomless behavior. Therefore, it should be distinguished from more common lesions of odontogenic origin in routine dental examinations. (Eur J Dent 2009;3:71-74)

ABSTRACT Adenoameloblastoma or adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon, benign, epithelial lesion of odontogenic origin. It is a rare benign odontogenic tumor of the jaw affecting mostly young individuals with predominance in female. It occurs mostly in maxillary anterior region. On the basis of clinical and radiographical picture, it is often misdiagnosed as an odontogenic cyst. We report on a rare case of a 13-year-old male patient with a follicular variety of AOT in mandibular left anterior region which is unusual for the same. Clinically and radiographically, the lesion was mimicking as a dentigerous cyst. Later surgical enucleation was done and specimen was sent for microscopic examination and was diagnosed as AOT along with a dentinoid-like deposits which is a rare finding.
