Report of a Rare Case of an Odontogenic Myxoma of the Maxilla and Review of Literature
Odontogenic myxoma (OM) is a mesenchymal tissue benign neoplasia, being relatively rare which is almost exclusively seen in tooth-bearing areas. OM commonly occurs in the 2(nd) and 3(rd) decade and the mandible is involved more commonly than the maxilla. The lesion often grows without symptoms and presents as a painless swelling. Radiographically, the myxoma appears as a unilocular or multilocu...
متن کاملExtensive Odontogenic Myxoma of the Maxilla: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Odontogenic myxomas (OM), also called odontogenic fibromyxomas, are rare tumours of the jawbones. They are benign tumours that can be locally invasive and aggressive, but seldom undergo malignant transformation and do not give rise to metastases. They are often asymptomatic and present as painless swelling. We present herein the case of a 24-year-old patient, with an incidental finding of a max...
متن کاملPeripheral Odontogenic Myxoma with Ossification: A Unique Case Report
Odontogenic myxoma is an uncommon, benign neoplasm and originates exclusively from the toothbearing areas of the jaw and more commonly found centrally in the mandible. Soft-tissue localization is seldom seen and is categorized as peripheral odontogenic myxoma. (POM). POM has a low recurrence rate. It grows slowly and less aggressive as compared to the central variety. Only a few cases of POM lo...
متن کاملOdontogenic Myxoma: Report of Two Cases with Review of Literature
Myxomas of the jaws are believed to arise from odontogenic ectomesenchyme. They bear a close resemblance to the mesenchymal portion of a developing tooth. Myxomas are predominantly found in young adults. Radiographically myxomas appear as unilocular or multilocular radiolucencies. The radiolucent defect can contain thin, wispy trabeculae of residual bone which are often arranged at right angles...
متن کاملOdontogenic Myxoma of the Maxilla- A Rare case Report.
Odontogenic myxoma (OM) is an uncommon, benign, locally invasive, non-metastasizing neoplasm arising from the odontogenic ectomesenchyme that usually occurs in the tooth bearing areas of the jaws. These lesions arouse special interest as they pose high diagnostic challenge. Here, we present a rare case of OM of the maxilla in an 18-year-old male. The clinical, radiographic and histopathological...
