Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a relatively uncommon distinct odontogenic neoplasm. It is an uncommon tumor of odontogenic origin with varying number of ductlike structures and inductive changes in the stroma. It is a benign and slow growing epithelial tumor and represents 3% of all odontogenic tumors. Its occurrence is more common in anterior region of the maxilla than mandible. Most of the ...

Adenomatoid tumors of adrenal gland are rare, asymptomatic neoplasias, with benign behavior, and usually are diagnosed incidentally. We report a case of a voluminous adenomatoid tumor of left adrenal gland in a 42-year old man who sought evaluation because of renal colic due to left nephrolithiasis. During the investigation, a tumor localized in left adrenal gland was identified by ultrasonogra...

BACKGROUND To report the cases of adenomatoid tumors seen at Hospital Universitario La Paz in the last 15 years. METHODS A clinical, pathological, and surgical study was conducted of males with testicular or paratesticular tumors with a histological report of adenomatoid tumor. RESULTS Among the nine cases studied, seven had paratesticular and two intratesticular adenomatoid tumors. Treatme...

he adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a clinically benign lesion. Discussions about the AOT hamartomatous or neoplastic nature, and the probable odontogenic epithelial cell it originates from still exist. This research aimed to study and discuss the subject by the immunohistochemical detection of cytokeratins, laminin, collagen IV, PCNA and p53 in 8 tumor samples and 8 dental follicle sampl...

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors are considered, rather than a neoplasia, a benign, hamartomatous epithelial lesion of odontogenic origin . Steensland fi rst described it in 1905; he considered it as a variation of ameloblastoma.1 Stafne, in 1948 described it as an «ameloblastic adenomatoid tumor or adenoameloblastoma»,2 since it presented structures which simulated canals or glands, he therefore...

Quigley, James C, and Hart, William R.: Adenomatoid tumors of the uterus. Am J Clin Pathol 76: 627-635, 1981. Adenomatoid tumors arising in the uterus are not well-recognized and are sometimes mistaken for other benign or malignant neoplasms. This study is a clinicopathologic analysis of 12 uterine adenomatoid tumors. Characteristically, they were small nodular lesions (mean diameter 2.1 cm) in...

adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (aot) is a benign odontogenic tumor with slow but progressive growth. the three variants: follicular, extra follicular (both central type), and peripheral present withidentical histologic findings. this case report describes a patient with a large aot in the mandibleof the extra follicular type which is the less common of the two central types. it also strikes as a...

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is an uncommon benign Hamartomatous lesion of odontogenic origin, which affects young individuals, with female predilection and mainly occurring in second decade of life. Maxillary anterior region is most often involved, and associated with unerupted or impacted canine. We report a rare case of treated multilocular adenomatoid odontogenic tumor of posterior mandibl...
