The Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor (AOT) is a rare, slow growing, benign, odontogenic epithelial tumor with characteristic clinical and histological features; which usually arise in the second or third decade. It is a tumor composed of odontogenic epithelium in a variety of histoarchitectural patterns which are embedded in a mature connective tissue stroma. It is mostly encountered in young pati...

UNLABELLED The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon tumor of odontogenic origin, composed of odontogenic epithelium and characterized by slow but progressive growth. We report a rare case of AOT in an 18-year-old, who presented with a palpable bony-hard swelling in the anterior maxillary region. The tumor was radiographically well-defined, and exhibited unilocular radiolucency. Hi...

A man had a lesion of the anterior mandible that was initially diagnosed at 39 years of age as an adenomatoid odontogenic tumor. The lesion recurred 3 times over a span of 16 years. A consultative review of all histological findings was done and the tumor was reclassified as an ameloblastoma.

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a rare noninvasive odontogenic tumor that occurs mostly in the second decade of life. Based on its tooth association, AOT can be classified into three categories of follicular, extrafollicular, and peripheral types; the follicular classification is considered as the most common type of AOT. This study reported a large extrafollicular case of AOT in a 40-ye...

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 tumor (AOT), constituting approximately 3-7% of all odontogenic tumors is described as a rare benign epithelial tumor of odontogenic origin. It is composed of odontogenic epithelium arranged in a variety of histoarchitectural presentations and closely resembles an ameloblastoma. AOT is mostly asymptomatic and is usually associated with impacted teeth in maxillary anterio...

We describe a case of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) associated with odontoma occurring in the posterior mandible of a 32-year-old man. Although calcifications are commonly found in the AOT, the presence of rudimentary dental structures is a very rare phenomenon. Cases with similar aspects have been described as ameloblastic dentinoma, ameloblastic odontoma, adenoameloblastic odontoma and ...
