AN UNUSUAL CASE OF EXTRA FOLLICULAR ADENOMATOID ODONTOGENIC TUMOR: A CASE REPORT.

Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 7

Abstract

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon tumor of odontogenic origin. It has two clinicopathologic variants, namely intraosseous (follicular and extrafollicular) and extraosseous(peripheral). The extrafollicular variety is rare and shows a prevalence of 26.9%. It generally occurs in younger females with a mean age of 24 years in the anterior maxilla. A case of extrafollicular AOT with a few unusual features is being reported here. In the reported case, it occurred in an older female, 55 years of age in the anterior mandible. Conventional and advanced imaging revealed a well-defined mixed radiolucent -radiopaque lesion. Surgical enucleation was performed and the histopathological diagnosis was suggestive of extrafollicular AOT. The patient recovered well after the surgical procedure and has been on regular follow up.
