Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) is an extremely rare benign tumor that accounts for 0.1% of all odontogenic tumors. It is a lesion associated with the crown of an unerupted tooth resembling dentigerous cyst. In this report, a 10-year-old male patient is presented, who was diagnosed with central odontogenic fibroma of simple type from clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings.

ABSTRACT Dentigerous cyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst that develops by accumulation of fluid between the reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crown of unerupted tooth. Mesiodens is a supernumerary tooth between both maxillary central incisors. Dentigerous cyst associated with mesiodens is rare. This paper presents a case of dentigerous cyst associated with an inverted mesiodens causing a painless swelling in the upper lip of a 29 years old male patient along with the treatment strategy employed for the patient.

ABSTRACT Introduction Odontogenic tumors (OTs) are a heterogeneous group of lesions that are derived from odontogenic apparatus comprised of odontogenic epithelium, ectomesenchyme, and/or mesenchymal elements. The OTs show marked geographical variation. This study was conducted to analyze the epidemiology and clinicopathological presentation of OTs based on age, sex, and site. Materials and methods This study was conducted in Department of Oral Pathology and Microbiology. Records were reviewed retrospectively for all the lesions of oral cavity from January 2010 to December 2015. A total of 92 lesions were found to be OTs and were classified into benign and malignant tumors. They were further subdivided into three subtypes based on the types of odontogenic tissues involved. These were epithelial OTs (EOTs), mixed OTs (MIXOTs), and mesenchymal OTs (MOTs). Results Of 92 OTs, 84 were benign (males 48, females 36) and 8 were malignant (male 2, females 6). The most common benign tumor was ameloblastoma (AME) (20), followed by keratocystic OT (KCOT) (17), calcifying EOT (CEOT) (14), compound odontome (OD-Cd) (12), complex odontome (OD-Cx) (10), odontogenic fibroma (OF) (5), odontogenic myxoma (OM) (4), and cementoblastoma (CB) (2). The most common malignant tumor was primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma (PIOSCC) (3) followed by fibrosarcoma (FS) (3) and ameloblastic carcinoma (AC). Conclusion Author concluded that there was geographic and demographic variation in distribution of OTs, which may be attributed to socioeconomic and genetic factors. Clinical significance Literature showing prevalence of OTs in India is negligible. By this article, we have analyzed the frequency of various OTs according to sex, age, and site. A comprehensive record of OTs should be started so that pathologists and surgeons would be able to acquire the information about the tumor for reference in the future.

The X-linked hyperimmunoglobulin M syndrome (HIGM), caused by mutations in the CD40LG gene, is a kind of primary immunodeficiency disease (PID). Patients with X-linked HIGM are susceptible to infection as well as autoimmune diseases. Lipoma arborescens (LA) is a rare benign tumor, of which the pathogenesis mechanism has not been clearly understood. We report a case of HIGM combined with LA in a 22-year-old male patient. A new deletion mutation of CD40LG gene was detected in this case. The possible relationship between HIGM and LA was also discussed.

Peripheral odontogenic fibroma (POdF) is a rare benign odontogenic tumor of ectomesenchymal origin which is composed of fibrous connective tissue containing islands, strands or cords of odontogenic epithelium. The lesion is more common among females, commonly seen between the second to fourth decades of life, mostly affecting the anterior region of mandible. Clinically, it may present similar characteristics with other more common gingival lesions such as pyogenic granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma and peripheral giant cell granuloma. So, histopathological examination is required for accurate diagnosis. We present here three rare clinical cases of peripheral odontogenic fibroma and their management by complete excision of the lesion with good postoperative outcomes.

Central odontogenic fibroma is an uncommon, benign, slow-growing intraosseous mesenchymal odontogenic tumour. It presents a diagnostic dilemma to the clinician and the pathologist because its clinical and radiological features resemble other odontogenic and/or non-odontogenic tumours, and the differential diagnosis is based on histological examination. In this report, we describe our experience with a case of a 23-year-old female patient with central odontogenic fibroma of the mandible that was diagnosed as ‘simple type’. Highlighting a subtype that was dropped from the last World Health Organization classification of head and neck tumours is important to accumulate more information about this lesion and to show its different features. Despite its rarity, central odontogenic fibroma should be included in the differential diagnosis of intrabony tumours of the jaws. These findings can better educate oral and maxillofacial surgeons about the unusual nature of this lesion, help establish a correct diagnosis and give the appropriate therapeutic management.
