Odontogenic Myxoma of the Mandible
Odontogenic myxomas are benign but locally aggressive neoplasms found almost exclusively in the jaws and arise only occasionally in other bones. We present a rare case of odontogenic myxoma occurring in the mandible of a 19-year-old male patient with a brief review of clinical and radiological features, and diagnostic and operative dilemmas in managing the same.
متن کاملOdontogenic myxoma of the maxilla
Myxomas are mostly seen in the 2(th) and 3(rd) decades. They rarely occur in childhood and maxillofacial region is rarely involved. The recurrence incidence is high. We report this unusual case occurring in a 9-year-old girl in the maxillofacial region and recurrence four months after initial treatment.
متن کاملOdontogenic Myxoma of the Mandible
Background: Odontogenic myxoma is a rare slow growing, benign, locally aggressive tumor of ectomesenchymal origin with or without odontogenic epithelium, comprising 3% to 6% of all odontogenic tumors. It appears to originate from dental papilla, follicle, or periodontal ligament in mandible and less commonly the maxilla. These usually present in second or third decades with marked female predil...
متن کاملOdontogenic myxoma: ultrastructural and histochemical studies.
An odontogenic myxoma of a maxilla has been examined. Histochemistry of the mucosubstance indicated that hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulphate were present. On ultrastructural examination many of the cells in the myxomatous tissue were seen with prominent rough endoplasmic reticulum, suggesting a secretory function, and possibly the myxomatous ground substance was produced by these cells. Ce...
متن کاملProblems in diagnosing odontogenic myxoma: case report.
Tumours and tumour-like growths arising from odontogenic tissues constitute a heterogenous group of lesions whose diagnosis can be particularly challenging on the part of both surgeons and pathologists. In children, these lesions are even more difficult to clinically and histopathologically diagnose definitively because of the concurrent diverse embryologic differentiation of dental tissues. A ...
