Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Oral and Dental Research - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
Abstract:The Calcifying Odontogenic Cyst (COC) represents a heterogeneous group of lesions that exhibits a variety of clinicopathologic and behavioural features. Therefore a proper categorization of the cases is needed for better understanding of each variant. Ameloblastoma is one of the well-known odontogenictumours that could be associated with Calcifying Odontogenic Cyst. Very few cases of Ameloblastomatous calcifying odontogenic cyst have been reported in the literature. In this report we present a case of ameloblastomatous transformation of calcifying odndontogenic cyst. Keywords: Gorlin cyst, Ameloblastoma, Calcifying odontogenic cyst.
