En la ortopantomografía (fig. 1) se observaba en el maxilar izquierdo la existencia de una lesión expansiva de densidad heterogénea con calcificaciones en su interior. En la TC del maxilar superior (fig. 2A y B) se confirmó la tumoración de aspecto quístico en el maxilar superior izquierdo, centrada a nivel molar en la arcada dentaria. Se evidenciaba que la tumoración hacía relieve en el seno m...

The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT), Pindborg tumor is a benign, slow growing, but locally invasive neoplasm. It is known to have a common intraosseous variant and a very rare extraosseous variant. We report an unusual case of an extraosseous variant of CEOT of unusual large size and maxillary anterior location, the treatment was planned considering the clinical, radiological and...

The combined epithelial odontogenic tumor is known to be an uncommon lesion characterized by the synchronous presentation of typical histological features of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, or Pindborg tumor. Combination between other types of odontogenic tumors has occasionally been reported in the literature. In this work we report 2 cases of adenomatoi...

Pindborg or calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a benign and noninvasive tumor that presents poor clinical features, a typical radiological picture and a characteristic histomorphology. CEOT is an uncommon odontogenic neoplasm, representing only 1% of all odontogenic tumors. The average age of occurrence is around 40 years with almost 1:1 gender ratio. It shows a mandible:maxilla ...

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...
