Squamous cell carcinoma arising from keratocystic odontogenic tumor

چکیده
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) arising from epithelial lining of Keratocystic Odonogenic Tumour(KCOT) is very rare with 0.001‐0.002 incidence.[1] Keratin metaplasia leading to epithelial hyperplasia and dysplasia can be one of the mechanisms of malignant changes so, presence of keratinisation in the cyst lining increases the risk of malignancy.[2,3] According to the new histological classification of tumors of the WHO, SCC arising from KCOT need to be treated as specific entity than arising from other odontogenic cysts.[4] This paper presents a case of SCC arising from Keratocystic Odonogenic Tumour(KCOT).

Squamous cell carcinoma arising from a keratocystic odontogenic tumor: a case report
BACKGROUND The term "primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma" was introduced in 2005 by the World Health Organization with three subcategories. Squamous cell carcinoma arising from the lining of an odontogenic cyst is one important rare subcategory of such lesions with an incidence of 0.01 to 0.02%. Furthermore, the appearance of such malignancy in an odontogenic tumor such as keratocystic...
متن کاملPrimary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma arising from keratocystic odontogenic tumor.
Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma (PIOSCC) is a rare lesion that almost exclusively occurs in the jaws. Most PIOSCCs originate from epithelial lining of odontogenic cysts, especially from radicular, residual, and dentigerous cysts. A few cases have been shown to arise from keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KCOTs). This is a report of a case of PIOSCC that arose from an untreated kerat...

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) derived from keratocystic odontogenic tumor is an extremely rare tumor that is limited to the jaws. Most intraosseous carcinomas originate from the epithelial lining of odontogenic cysts, so they are called odontogenic carcinomas. They occur more frequently in men and the mean age of patients is 57 years. The following report describes an extremely rare case of an ...
متن کاملPrimary Intraosseous Carcinoma of the Maxilla
A primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC) is a squamous cell carcinoma arising within the jawbone andshould be differentiated from a malignant ameloblastoma. It is not due to arising from an odontogenic cyst or tumor. The possibility of the lesion being a metastasis fromanotherprimary site should be considered, and excluded by a careful history and examination. The diagnosis of a PIOC is ra...
متن کاملSquamous cell carcinoma arising within a maxillary odontogenic keratocyst: A rare occurrence
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) arising within the lining of an odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a rare occurrence. Although potentially locally destructive, OKC is a benign odontogenic process that typically presents with clinical and radiographic features characteristic of a benign intraosseous neoplasm. We present the clinical and radiographic features of a maxillary mass that demonstrated SCC ...
