Primary Intraosseous Carcinoma of the Maxilla
Authors
Abstract:
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 rare, but it is often worth considering in any differential diagnosis of jawradiolucency. The prognosis associated with primary intraosseous carcinoma of the jaws is poor and needs for aggressive treatment. It is common for these patients to present with apparent routine dental.This paper reports a case PIOC of the maxilla. The patient was a 68-year-old woman with a chief complaint of swelling of her hard palate.

Primary Intraosseous Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Maxilla.
Primary intraosseous mucoepidermoid carcinoma (PIOC) is an infrequent malignancy of the head and neck that exhibits diverse biological behavior. The rareness of the location for a salivary gland tumor and the clinical and radiographic manifestations, suggestive of an odontogenic lesion often pose a diagnostic challenge. We hereby report such a unique case of central mucoepidermoid carcinoma tha...

Background: Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma (PIOC) of the mouth is a very rare but well-known carcinoma. It is locally invasive and its prognosis is quite poor. It may originate from the walls of an odontogenic cyst or de novo from the remnant epithelium at this region. Because the early symptoms of such malignancies are sometimes similar to those of inflammatory or periodontal dis...

BACKGROUND Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma is a rare jaw bone tumor defined as squamous cell carcinoma arising within the jaw, having no initial connection with the oral mucosa and developing from residual odontogenic epithelium or from an odontogenic cyst or tumor. Solid type of this tumor arising in the maxilla is an even rarer presentation, because the majorities derive from cys...

OBJECTIVES To present 8 new cases of primary intraosseous carcinoma of the jaws and to review the literature for an analysis of treatment modalities and patient outcomes. DATA SOURCES A MEDLINE search from 1970 to 1999. The articles chosen and the study of the references of every one that produced additional articles provided database information for 28 patients. Eight new patients from our i...

The case of a 58-year-old man with a large primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC) of the mandible is presented. The tumour is rare, and the prognosis is usually poor. There are no specific histological characteristics of PIOC. Staining for basement membrane laminin could be a valuable aid in the differential diagnosis between PIOC and tumours of ameloblastoma origin.
