Central mucoepidermoid carcinoma (CMEC) is a rare pathological entity with only few case reports in the literature. The present reported an uncommon occurrence of CMEC mimicking odontogenic lesion young patient. A 17-year-old female patient sought dental care due to slight swelling located posterior region mandible on left side. Radiographic exams revealed osteolytic defined limits relation pro...

Ameloblastoma is a slow-growing and locally invasive epithelial odontogenic tumor of the jaw that runs benign course in most cases. Granular cell ameloblastoma rare subtype ameloblastoma, showing granular transformation its cytoplasm. It considered as an aggressive variant ameloblastoma. Herein, we report case 34-year-old male patient who presented with swelling left cheek for 1-year duration r...

Ameloblastoma is an infiltrative benign neoplasm in the mandible or maxilla that locally aggressive with rare metastasizing capacity. This lesion most common tumor of odontogenic epithelium. However, its occurrence children low, representing only 10–15% all reported ameloblastoma cases. In treating such neoplasms pediatric patients, preservation vital structures as inferior alveolar nerve (IAN)...

Introduction: Osteoma is a benign neoplasm resulting from the continuous formation of cortical or cancellous bone. Osteomas of the maxillofacial region mostly occur in the mandible. However, rarely osteomas seen in the mandibular condyle. Case Report: We present a case of a 33-year-old male patient reported with chief complaints of malocclusion, facial asymmetry, difficulty in chewing and devia...

Introduction: Metastatic tumors of oral and maxillofacial region compromise 1% of all malignant oral neoplasms. Most commonly affect the jaw bone and less commonly intraoral soft tissues. They originate mainly from primary tumors of lung, breast, colon-rectum, prostate and kidney. Case report: a 77 years old man with history of sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma and liver metastasis. Two years later ...

Central cementifying fibroma is a rare non odontogenic tumor coming in the group of fibro osseous lesion, arising from periodontal ligament and is usually seen in tooth bearing area. It can affect both the mandible and the maxilla, particularly the mandible. This bone tumour consists of highly cellular, fibrous tissue that contains varying amounts of calcified tissue resembling bone, cementum o...

Osteosarcomas are primary malignant bone tumours in which mesenchymal cells produce osteoid. It is generally the most common malignant bone neoplasm, although lesions of the jaw are uncommon. Osteosarcoma of the jaw (JOS) presents a lower incidence of metastasis and a better prognosis than osteosarcoma of the long bones. However, patients with JOS can exhibit advanced tumours, mainly when early...

Malignant mesothelioma predominantly arises from the serosal surfaces of the pleural or peritoneal cavity. There is currently no effective standard treatment for mesothelioma and the prognosis for patients is poor; the majority of patients with malignant mesothelioma succumb between 12 and 17 months following diagnosis. The association of all forms of malignant mesothelioma with asbestos exposu...

Calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor (CCOT) previously known as calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is a relatively rare lesion. It was first reported as a separate pathologic entity by Gorlin et al in 1962 as a likely analog of the cutaneous calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe or pilomatricoma. Because of the diverse clinicohistologic features and the various neoplastic potential, there have been ...
