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)
Age and location common w/ CEOT
- 40
- 2:1 mandible (esepecially posterior)
What are the symptoms and what is a CEOT usually associated with
- Swelling
- Usually impacted tooth
Radiographic findings of CEOT
- Small- well circumsribed radiolucenct
- Can become multilocular w/ radiopaque flecks
Tumor w/ proliferation of polyhedral epithelial cells w/ eosinphilic cytoplasm w/ pleomorphic nuclei
CEOT
Structures in CEOT where epithelial cells stain eosinophilic and homogenous material stains amyloid where calcifications develop and form lamellated structures
Liesegang rings
Treatment and prognosis of CEOT
- Conservative excision
- Recurs 15%
Mixed odontogenic tumor w/ proliferationg odontogenic epithelium in a cellular ectomesenchyme resemling the dental papilla
Ameloblastic Fibroma
Age and location common w/ Ameloblastic Fibroma
Younger patients, 70% in posterior mandible
Symptoms/radiographs of small/large Ameloblastic Fibroma
- Small- Asymptomatic and uni
- Large- Painless swelling, multi
- Margins are sclerotic or well defined
Tumor w/ myxoid CT resembling dental papilla w/ strands of odontogenic epithelium resembling the dental lamina (can vaguely resemble ameloblastoma)
Ameloblastic Fibroma
Treatment and prognosis for Ameloblastic Fibroma
- Aggressive curettage
- Good, 15% recur, low transformation
Odontogenic tumor w/ features of ameloblastic fibroma admixed w/ and odontoma
Ameloblastic Fibro-Odontoma
Age and symptoms w/ Ameloblastic Fibro-Odontoma
- 10 years
- Asymptomatic unless failure of tooth eruption or swelling
Location of Ameloblastic Fibro-Odontoma
- Equal max and mand
- Radiolucency w/ calcified material overlying and impacted tooth
What type of odontoma is the odontoma portion of a Ameloblastic Fibro-Odontoma
Complex
Treatment and prognosis for Ameloblastic Fibro-Odontoma
- Curretage
- Excellent
Probably not a true neoplasm but an odontogenic hamartoma
Odontoma
What are the 2 forms of Odontomas and where are they located
1) Compound (anterior jaw)
2) Complex (posterior jaw)
Age, associated, and location of Odontomas
- 14 years old
- Usually w/ unerupted tooth
- Max a little more than mand
How does a compound Odontoma present
- Collection of small malformed teeth surrounded by radiolucent rim overlying an impacted tooth
How does a complex Odontoma present
- Calcified mass that can have density of tooth, surrounded by radiolucent rim overlying and impacted tooth (shows mix of dentin, emamel, cementum, odontogenic epithelium and dental papilla)
Treatment and prognosis for Odontoma
- Enucleation, excellent
Benign neoplasm of odontogenic origin because it only affects the jaw as a central lesion
Odontogenic Myxoma
Age, location, and symptoms of Odontogenic Myxoma
- Younger adults (25-30)
- Mandible slightly more than max
- Larger lesions expansion of bone
Radiographic Odontogenic Myxoma
- Uni then multilocular, soap bubbl
- Can displace teeth/roots
- Thin, wispy trabecuclae of residual bone often at right angles
Tumor that has spindle or stellate shaped fibroblastic cells in a myxoid background, infiltrates adjacent bony trabeculae
Odontogenic Myxoma
Treatment and prognosis of Odontogenic Myxoma
- Small- curretage
- Large- en bloc or segemental resecetion
- Good, 25% recur
Well-cirumscribed radiopaque mass w/ a radiolucent border that fuses to the resorbed root of a mandibular first molar
Cementoblastoma
Age, location, and signs/symptoms of Cementoblastoma
- Patients under 25
- Mand molar
- Slow growing, and pain and swelling seen 67% of tme
Has trabeculae of mineralized material that resembles cementum and are rimmed by plump angular cells that represent neoplastic cementoblasts
Cementoblastoma
Differential diagnosis for Cementoblastoma and distinguishing feautre
Osteoblastoma/sarcoma
- Fusion to root is distinguishing feature
Treatment and prognosis for Cementoblastoma
- Extraction of tooth and enucleation
- RCT, enucleation and amputation of involed root
- Excellent prognosis
