Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon, slow-growing, noninvasive mostly in the anterior maxilla with three well-recognized clinico-pathological variants: follicular, extra-follicular, and peripheral. Extra-follicular variant presents as a well-defined, unilocular, radiolucency between, above, or superimposed on roots of erupted tooth. A 19 years female reported chief complaint loos...

A child with the antenatal diagnosis of pulmonary cystic adenomatoid malformation underwent thoracotomy and an intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration was found. Histological examination of the resected specimen showed cystic adenomatoid malformation within the sequestered segment.

BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to compare the classical method and Sectioning and Extensively Examining the Fimbriated End Protocol (SEE-FIM) in detecting microscopic lesions in fallopian tubes with gynecological lesions. METHODS From a total of 1,118 cases, 582 with various parts of both fallopian tubes sampled in three-ring-shape sections and 536 sampled with the SEE-FIM protoco...

In this study, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and p53 protein expressions were analyzed in 16 cases of ameloblastoma and 8 cases of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT). The cases of ameloblastoma consisted of solid type tumors and histologic arrangements of different subtypes were observed. In some specimens, more than one histologic subtype was identified in the same lesion, and eac...

The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a benign, non-invasive tumor and has a slow growth. Its preferred location is the anterior maxillary area, most often causing root displacement, more rarely resorption and mostly affects young women. Being asymptomatic, this injury is discovered upon routine radiographic examination, in which, in most cases, a unilocular, radiolucent image is observed and it...

We describe a case of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) associated with odontoma occurring in the posterior mandible of a 32-year-old man. Although calcifications are commonly found in the AOT, the presence of rudimentary dental structures is a very rare phenomenon. Cases with similar aspects have been described as ameloblastic dentinoma, ameloblastic odontoma, adenoameloblastic odontoma and ...
