Objective: To summarize the ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of lymphoepithelial cysts (LECs) and dermoid cysts (DCs) and to discuss the hyperinternal echo in LECs based on histopathological findings.
Methods: Patients who underwent US and MRI before resection and whose lesions were pathologically diagnosed as LECs or DCs were included (January 2010 to December 2023). Internal echo, convective flow, and Doppler signals were evaluated on US, while on MRI, we measured the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC).
Primary intraosseous carcinoma not otherwise specified (PIOC NOS) is a rare tumor assumed to arise from the epithelium, such as odontogenic cysts or benign tumors. Its clinical and imaging diagnoses are often challenging, especially in the early stages, as it mimics jaw cysts and benign tumors, and no specific findings have been identified. This report presents the case of a 66-year-old male patient with mandibular PIOC, highlighting the imaging findings over time.
