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...

A 36-year-old woman was examined and treated for a rare odontogenic tumor in the mandible, the calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT), also known as the Pindborg tumor. The tumor extended from the left mandibular molar region to the right premolar area and had almost completely destroyed the bone in the anterior mandibular region. An orthopantomogram showed a multiloculated radiolucent ...

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumors are benign odontogenic neoplasms whose occurrence in the maxillary sinus is rare. Maxillary tumors tend to be locally aggressive and may rapidly involve the surrounding vital structures. We report a case of a large calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor of the maxilla, involving the maxillary sinus in a 48-year-old woman. The tumor was largely intraosse...

The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a rare benign epithelial odontogenic neoplasm of slow growth that is locally aggressive and tends to invade bone and adjacent soft tissue. Here is reported the case of a 21-year-old female patient with a CEOT in the left mandibular posterior region. The computerized tomography in coronal plane revealed a hypodense lesion in the posterior reg...
