4 - odontogenic neoplasms Flashcards
odontogenic neoplasms
tumors of _
enamel organ ( out and inner enamel epi, stellate reticulum, stratum intermedium, ameloblasts, reduced enamel epi)
tumors of odontogenic epithelium
odontogenic neoplasms
mixed tumors of _ and _
odontogenic epi and odontogenic ectomesenchyme
odontogenic neoplasms
tumors of _
dental papilla (dental sac, dentin, pulp, cementum)
tumors of odontogenic ectomesenchyme
3 tumors of odontogenic epithelium
ameloblastoma - peripheral ameloblastoma
adenoid odontogenic tumor AOT
calcifying epi odontogenic tumor CEOT - pindbord tumor
3 mixed tumors of odontogenic epi and odontogenic ectomesenchyme
ameloblastic fibroma
ameloblastic fibro-odontoma
odontoma
tumors of odontogenic ectomesenchyme
odontogenic myxoma
cementoblastoma
odontogenic neoplasms
benign, but locally aggressive
painless
frequency equals combined frequency of all other odontogenic tumors
only 0.2% of oral pathology cases
ameloblastoma
odontogenic neoplasms : Ameloblastoma
gender
age
fast/flow growing
expand/none
no gender
33 years old average
slow growing
usually expands - rather than perforates bone - expansion can be DRAMATIC
most common to least common jaw sites for ameloblastoma
66 posterior mandi 11 premolar mandi 10 anterior mandi 6 posterio maxilla 6 anterior maxilla 1 PM maxilla
radiographic features:
most in molar/ramus region of mandible, but can occur anywhere
unilocular/multiocular with well defined but not sclerotic borders, espeically small lesions - mutiocular expansile radioluceny “soap bubble” or honeycomb
may displace teeth/resorb roots
~20% associated with impacted tooth
Ameloblastoma - odontogenic epi neoplasms
straight trabeculae may mimic odontogenic myxoma
histopathologic features
resembles ameloblasts of the enamel organ
no enamel is produced by lesional cells
several different patterns - most common are follicular and plexiform
tumor often infiltrates bony trabeculae (recurrence)
ameloblastoma
histopathological features
tumor islands showing cuboidal or columnar cells at the periphery
center of the tumor islands is composed of loosely arranged polyhedral epi cells that resemble stellate reticulum
ameloblast-like cells with reverse polarization: nuclei are polarized away from the basement membrane
ameloblastoma
tx for ameloblastoma
small - aggressive curettage or small enbloc resection
large - en bloc resection or segmental resection with reconstruction
maxillary - tx more aggressively due to anatomic location
curettage - 50-90% recurrence rae
Px of ameloblastoma
guarded
simple curettage - 50-90% recurrence
even with resection recurrence rates reported up to 15%
can be fatal - esp. maxillary lesions
rare malignant transfer
annual radiographic followup for 8-10 years
soft tissue variant of ameloblastoma
gingival mass - usually less than 2cm in diameter
can look like any gingival bumps
asymptomatic - usually posterio mandible
middle-aged adult - 52
peripheral ameloblastoma
radiographic features
no radiographic findings - no or limited bone involvement - may have superficial erosion
ameloblastoma
histopathological features
tumor islands showing cuboidal or columnar cells at the periphery
center of the tumor islands is composed of loosely arranged polyhedral epi cells that resemble stellate reticulum
the lesion is located under the surface epi
peripheral ameloblastoma
Peripheral ameloblastoma tx and px
tx - biopsy is often curative - innocuous lesion easily cured by local excision
little tendency to recur - retx curative
tumors of odontogenic epithelium
most patients under 20 often no change to alveolar bone - can also have expansion and swelling asymptomatic 2:1female 2:1maxilla 75% anterior jaws 75%associated with impacted tooth
adenomatoid odontogenic tumor - AOT
peripheral AOT rare - soft tissue
Adenomatoid odontogenic tummor - Epi
