calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a rare odontogenic neoplasm. its occurrence in the maxillary sinus is very rare. maxillary tumors tend to be locally aggressive and may rapidly involve the surrounding vital structures.  we report a case of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor involving maxillary sinus in a 48 years old female patient with the oral mucosal involvement. the purpose o...

BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to investigate the immunolocalization of ezrin and its relationship with the podoplanin expression in keratocystic odontogenic tumors. MATERIAL AND METHODS The immunohistochemical expressions of ezrin and podoplanin by odontogenic epithelium were evaluated in keratocystic odontogenic tumors using monoclonal antibodies. RESULTS Our results showed strong...

Tumours of odontogenic origin have been reported in various domestic animals. Ameloblastic fibroodontomais a rare tumour derived from odontogenic epithelium and pulpal mesenchyme. Plain andformalised sections from masses on the front of the cranial aspect of the jaw and the end of the tongue of acastrated beef cattle from an abattoir was submitted to Mt Pleasant laboratories, Launceston, Austra...

objective: tooth loss is a common problem and since current tooth replacement methods cannot counter balance with biological tooth structures, regenerating natural tooth structures has become an ideal goal. a challenging problem in tooth regeneration is to find a proper clinically feasible cell to seed.this study was designed to investigate the odontogenic potential of human bone marrow mesench...

The aim of this study is to investigate the proliferative potential of rests of odontogenic epithelium found in follicles of unerupted teeth, epithelium of oral mucosa and epithelial linings of various odontogenic cysts. MIB-1 expression was studied in the rests of odontogenic epithelium (n=10), healthy oral mucosa (n=10), odontogenic keratocysts (n=10) and other odontogenic cysts (n=10) using ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to determine the apoptotic features and proliferation potential of odontogenic keratocysts compared with ameloblastomas and radicular cysts by analysing the role of bax, bcl-2, and Ki-67. MATERIAL AND METHOD The study material consisted of 20 odontogenic keratocysts, 20 radicular cysts, and 20 ameloblastomas. Immunohistochemically, bax, bcl-2 and Ki-67 were ...

A spontaneous ameloblastic fibroma was found in a 9-week-old guinea pig. Histopathologically, neoplastic cells consisted of two components: an odontogenic epithelium and odontogenic mesenchyme. The odontogenic epithelium formed strands, nests and islands that were interspersed within the odontogenic mesenchyme. In the marginal region, odontoblasts and scant dysplastic eosinophilic material were...

Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma (PIOSCC) is a rare type of odontogenic carcinoma arising from the jawbone. Odontogenic cysts are true cysts that arise from the dental epithelium, which is associated with tooth formation. The epithelial lining of odontogenic cysts has the potential to transform into various types of odontogenic tumor; however, this transformation from an odontogenic...
