A case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma associated with maxillary cyst.
We report a case of a mucoepidermoid carcinoma associated with a maxillary cyst. The patient was an 18-year-old man presenting with the chief complaint of left buccal swelling. The left maxillary third molar was semi-impacted in the direction of the crown on the buccal side. Orthopantomography revealed a cystic radiolucency extending over a wide area, ranging from the left maxilla to the maxill...
متن کاملOdontogenic Keratocyst Mimicking Paradental Cyst
Objective. The aim of this paper is to present an uncommon clinical and radiographic aspect of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) mimicking paradental cyst. Methods. A 32-year-old female patient showed a well-delimited radiolucent lesion connected with the root of the left third molar with close anatomical relationship with the mandibular canal. The clinical, radiographic, and anamnestic features lea...
متن کاملCentral mucoepidermoid carcinoma radiographically mimicking an odontogenic tumor: A case report and literature review
Central mucoepidermoid carcinoma (CMC) of the jaw bones is a rare malignant salivary gland tumor of unknown pathogenesis, comprising about 4% of all mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs). Most cases are histologically classified as a low-grade tumor and radiographically appear as a well-defined unilocular or multilocular radiolucent lesion. Block resection or wide local excisions are the treatment o...
متن کاملGlandular odontogenic cyst mimicking a radicular cyst: A case series
Glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is considered an odontogenic cyst of developmental origin, which because of its histological features had been termed sialo-odontogenic cyst. Although clinically and radiologically they bear similarity to relatively innocuous periapical lesions, their biological behavior is comparable to aggressive tumor-like conditions-like keratocystic odontogenic tumors. Thei...
متن کاملHigh-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma of maxillary sinus
Malignant tumors of the paranasal sinus are uncommon, constituting less than 1% of all malignancies and 3% of all head and neck cancers. Nonsquamous cancers of the maxillary sinus are even rarer as is evident from the limited data available on the clinical characteristics and outcomes. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma accounts for 13% of all malignancies occurring in maxillary sinus. We report a rare c...
