Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumors are rare odontogenic neoplasms that account for approximately one percent of all odontogenic tumors. Extra osseous variant is very rare with very few cases being reported in literature Peripheral Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) commonly resemble oral hyperplastic or reactive lesions and are histologically similar to their intraosseous counterparts. Here we report a rare case of gingival calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor in the mandibular posterior region in a 31 year old female patient. Interestingly on literature review in on PubMed search only 22 case reports were available in, English literature, added to that this report will be the 23rd case.

Are hypoxia-related proteins associated with the invasiveness of glandular odontogenic cysts? A multicenter study.
Arch Oral Biol
November 2024
Laboratory of Histopathology and Immunohistochemistry, School of Dentistry, Universidade Federal do Pará, Belém, Pará, Brazil. Electronic address:
Objective: The study aimed to investigate the expression of hypoxia markers associated with invadopodia in glandular odontogenic cysts and to explore an association between this expression with the aggressive biological behaviour of this odontogenic cyst.
Design: Immunohistochemistry was employed to assess the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α), notch homologous protein of the neurogenic locus 1 (NOTCH-1), disintegrin and metalloproteinase-12 (ADAM-12), and heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) in 17 samples of glandular odontogenic cysts, 10 samples of calcifying odontogenic cysts, and 10 samples of dental follicles.
Results: The glandular odontogenic cyst samples exhibited increased expression of HIF-1α, NOTCH-1, ADAM-12 and HBEGF proteins compared with calcifying odontogenic cyst and dental follicle samples.
Surgical treatment of pilomatrix carcinoma: a systematic review.
Int J Dermatol

Article Synopsis
- Pilomatrix carcinoma (PMC) is a rare and aggressive hair follicle tumor with high recurrence and metastasis risks, often stemming from benign pilomatricoma or arising independently.
- A study analyzed various surgical treatments for PMC by reviewing 257 articles from major databases, ultimately including 50 relevant studies, highlighting the effectiveness of different surgical methods.
- The findings revealed that Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) had no recurrences in 17 treated cases, while surgical excision resulted in a 34.5% recurrence rate, suggesting that MMS is a superior option to minimize recurrence and preserve tissue.

Background: Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a rare benign tumor that predominantly occurs in posterior sites of the mandible in adults.
Case Presentation: This case report describes a case of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor in a 37-year-old Iranian female with the chief complaint of swelling in the anterior region of the mandible and tooth displacement. This paper summarized the pathological findings, radiographical features and clinical management of the patient.

Complex odontoma is a benign odontogenic tumor composed of disorganized dental tissues, including enamel, dentin, cementum, and pulp. Unlike compound odontomas, which exhibit tooth-like structures, complex odontomas form a mass without anatomical organization. These tumors frequently present without symptoms and are typically identified inadvertently during standard dental imaging procedures.

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) and ameloblastoma are types of odontogenic tumors accounting for 1%, and 10% of all the odontogenic tumors. While sharing same odontogenic origin, these tumors are found to exhibit distinct clinicopathological features. In the present study, we present the third hybrid CEOT/Ameloblastoma tumor ever reported.
