Odontogenic Neoplasms Flashcards
3 tumors of Odontogenic Epithelium
1) Amolblastoma
2) Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor
3) Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic tumor (CEOT)
3 mixed odontogenic tumors
1) Ameloblastic Fibroma
2) Ameloblastic Fibro-odontoma
3) Odontoma
2 tumors of odontogenic Ectomesenchyme
1) Odontogenic Myxoma
2) Cementoblastoma
Benign, but locally aggressive neoplasm of odontogenic epithelial origin that resembles the ameloblasts of the enamel organ, except no enamel is being produced
Ameloblastoma
What is the most common odontogenic tumor
Ameloblastoma, more common than all other combined
Percent of oral pathology accession Ameloblastoma accounts for, sex predilection, average age
- 0.2% of oral pathologies
- No sex
- 33 years old
Area Ameloblastoma are most common and percent associated w/ impacted teeth
- Molar-ramus area of the mandible
- 20% associated w/ impacted teeth
Signs and symptoms of an Ameloblastoma
- Slow growth, destroying tissue and expanding (not perforating) bone, usually asymptomatic except for swelling
- May displace or resorb roots
Radiographic appearance of Ameloblastoma (small and large)
- Small- Unilocular radiolucency w/ well defined borders
- Large- Multilocular soap bubble appearance
Typically plexiform and follicular pattern w/ single layer of columnar ameloblast like cells at periphery w/ nuclei polarized away from BM and tumor islands composed of polyhedral epithelial cells that resemble stellate reticulum
Ameloblastoma
Treatment and prognosis for Ameloblastoma, which arch should they be treated more aggressively
- Small- Aggressive curretage or small en bloc resection
- Large- En bloc or segemental resection and reconstruction
- Maxillary
- Guarded (55-90% recur w/ curretage, 15% recur w/ marginal resection)
- Can be fatal, rare malignant transformation, follow up for 8-10 years
Asymptomatic gingival mass w/ no or minimal bone involvement
Peripheral Ameloblastoma
Age Peripheral Ameloblastoma is seen
Middle aged adult
Clinical presentation and treatment of Peripheral Ameloblastoma
Many gingival bumps (<2 cm), biopsy is currative
Asymptomatic swelling of enamel organ or dental lamina rests often discovered incidentally
Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor
Age, sex, and location (%s) Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor are sen
- Most under 20
- 2:1 F, 2:1 max
- 75% in ant jaw
- 75% w/ impacted tooth
Radiographic appearace of Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor
Well circumscribed unilocular radiolucency, pericoronal radiolucency may extend apically beyond DEJ
- Seperation of roots and displacement of teeth
Tumor cells forming swirling spindle cell nests and duct like structures (adenomatoid), foci of basophilic material
Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor
Treatment and Prognosis of Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor
- Enucleation and excellent
Rare odontogenic epithelial neoplasm that is thought to be from stratum intdermedium
CEOT (Pindborg Tumor)
