Extrafollicular Cystic Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor of the Maxilla: a Rare Challenging Case Report with Review of the Literature
Authors
Abstract:
Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a non-aggressive slow growing epithelial odontogenic tumor with varied clinical and microscopic features. This neoplasm rarely appears as a completely cystic lesion histopathologically; therefore, oral pathologists should be aware of the various histopathologic types of this lesion. The main objective of this case report is to present a rare challenging case of maxillary extrafollicular cystic adenomatoid odontogenic tumor affecting a 28-year-old male.

The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a benign, non-invasive lesion with a slow but progressive growth. This tumor has three variants: follicular, extrafollicular, and peripheral. The extrafollicular type is an intraosseous lesion that is not associated with unerupted teeth. Radiographically, it appears as a well-defined, unilocular, round or ovoid radiolucency with multiple, small, irregu...

INTRODUCTION The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) associated with odontoma has been described as a new entity with overlapping features of adenomatoid-like structures and odontoma. Presentation of the case: We report the second case of AOT associated with odontoma in the posterior maxillary region. A 22-year-old patient presented expansion of the vestibular and palatine cortical wall of maxi...

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a rare odontogenic tumor which is often misdiagnosed as odontogenic cyst. To acquire additional information about AOT, all reports regarding AOT and cited in "pubmed" since 1990 onward were reviewed. AOT accounts for about 1% until 9% of all odontogenic tumors. It is predominantly found in young and female patients, located more often in the maxilla in mos...

Adenomatoid Odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a benign (hamartomatous) lesion of Odontogenic origin, which is relatively uncommon and affects young individuals with a female predominance, mainly in the second decade. This lesion is most commonly located i the anterior maxilla and is usually associated with an impacted canine tooth. The present case report is a 15year old female patient, who presented ...

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors are considered, rather than a neoplasia, a benign, hamartomatous epithelial lesion of odontogenic origin . Steensland fi rst described it in 1905; he considered it as a variation of ameloblastoma.1 Stafne, in 1948 described it as an «ameloblastic adenomatoid tumor or adenoameloblastoma»,2 since it presented structures which simulated canals or glands, he therefore...
