Glandular odontogenic cyst mimicking a radicular cyst: A case series
Glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is considered an odontogenic cyst of developmental origin, which because of its histological features had been termed sialo-odontogenic cyst. Although clinically and radiologically they bear similarity to relatively innocuous periapical lesions, their biological behavior is comparable to aggressive tumor-like conditions-like keratocystic odontogenic tumors. Thei...
متن کاملA Case Report of Asymptomatic Glandular Odontogenic Cyst Mimicking as a Nasopalatine Duct Cyst
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Glandular odontogenic cyst is a rare developmental odontogenic cyst which most frequently occures in mandible. According to low incidence and unusual shape and location of this case, we decided to report the case. CASE REPORT: Here we present an asymptomatic case in anterior part of maxilla that radiographically was small and unilacular mimicking as a nasopalatine du...
متن کاملCentral mucoepidermoid carcinoma radiographically mimicking an odontogenic tumor: A case report and literature review
Central mucoepidermoid carcinoma (CMC) of the jaw bones is a rare malignant salivary gland tumor of unknown pathogenesis, comprising about 4% of all mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs). Most cases are histologically classified as a low-grade tumor and radiographically appear as a well-defined unilocular or multilocular radiolucent lesion. Block resection or wide local excisions are the treatment o...
متن کاملGlandular odontogenic cyst: an uncommon entity.
The glandular odontogenic cyst is a cyst that arises in development sites of the teeth; it is usually found in the mandible and maxilla,1 and is characterized by cuboidal or columnar epithelium on the surface and in crypts within the epithelium. This cyst generally is encountered in the anterior areas of the mandible; it is more common in adults aged over 40 years, and tends to recur. The recor...
متن کاملGlandular odontogenic cyst: A case report
Glandular odontogenic cysts (GOCs) are rare intrabony solitary or multiloculated cysts of odontogenic origin. The importance of GOCs lies in the fact that they exhibit a propensity for recurrence similar to keratocystic odontogenic tumors and that they may be confused microscopically with central mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Thus, the oral and maxillofacial radiologists play an important role in d...
