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.

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.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common oral malignant tumors comprising of 90-95 % of cases (Pindborg et al., 1990; Harrison et al., 1999). It is commonest malignancy in Indian sub continent (Pindborg et al., 1990; Parija, 1991). It is histologically graded as well, moderate and poorly differentiated tumor based on several factor (Neville et al., 2002’ Neville et al., 2002). One...

Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic Tumor (CEOT) is a rare benign odontogenic tumor that was first described by Pindborg in 1955. It accounts for less than 1% of all odontogenic neoplasms. This lesion is a locally aggressive benign odontogenic neoplasm arising from epithelial tissue. The radiographic appearance is characterized by unior multilocular radiolucent areas with radiopaque masses of var...
