Recurrent CEOT of the maxilla
نویسندگان
چکیده
Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a rare benign, but locally infiltrating odontogenic neoplasm. It accounts for less than 1% of all odontogenic tumors. This is a case report of recurrent CEOT in the maxilla. A 35-year-old patient reported after three years of surgical excision of the lesion, with a recurrence. It is of particular concern because of its anatomic location in the maxilla. Maxillary tumors tend to be more aggressive and rapidly spreading and may involve the surrounding vital structures. Adequate resection of the lesion with disease-free surgical margins and long-term follow-up is recommended.

A male patient presented with an extraordinarily large calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT or Pindborg-tumor) that affected the maxilla. The disease became evident due to alterations in the facial aspect, in particular of the perioral region, caused by the expanding tumor.
