CT and MR imaging features of a case of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor.

CT and MR imaging features of a case of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor.

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a rare lesion. We report the imaging features of a calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor. The imaging including conventional radiograph, CT and MR imaging revealed a well-defined lesion in the alveolar bone of the left maxilla, which contained an impacted tooth and some small radiopacities. CT and MR imaging demonstrated a contrast enhancement mainly...

CT and MR imaging appearances of an extraosseous calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (Pindborg tumor).

We herein report a rare case of extraosseous calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor with local aggressive behavior. CT and MR imaging showed the distinctive appearances of this histologic entity. We briefly discuss the radiologic features of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor and the relevant literature.

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor: a case report.

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a rare benign lesion. A case of CEOT in the left mandible of a 46-year-old man is presented. This case is exceptionally unusual because it was left untreated for 10 years, indicating in some way the course of the tumor. Histologic findings both at the time of first diagnosis and at the final treatment 9 years later were identical.

Aggressive calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor masquerading as maxillary sinus tumor: a case report.

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a rare odontogenic neoplasm. Its occurrence in the maxillary sinus is very rare. Maxillary tumors tend to be locally aggressive and may rapidly involve the surrounding vital structures.  We report a case of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor involving maxillary sinus in a 48 years old female patient with the oral mucosal involvement. The purpose o...
