EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC
TUMORS
AMELOBLASTOMA
A locally aggressive neoplasm of odontogenic epithelium
that has a wide spectrum of histologic patterns resembling
early odontogenesis.
• It is a benign neoplasm.
Four sources:
(1) remnants of the dental lamina (rests of Serres)
(2) reduced enamel epithelium
(3) rests of Malassez
(4) the basal cell layer of overlying surface epithelium
Common features:
• Slow growing
• Locally aggressive
• Capable of causing large facial deformities
• A high recurrence rate
• Metastasis is rare
Common Ameloblastoma CONVENTIONAL SOLID OR MULTICYSTIC INTRAOSSEOUS
AMELOBLASTOMA
Oth er n ames : simp le or follic u lar amelob lastoma
• occur in patients over 25 years of age
• third to seventh decades of life (25+ to 60s)
CLINICAL FEATURES
1. May produce extensive, even grotesque, deformities of the mandible and maxilla.
2. Often asymptomatic , painless, bony expansion.
3. Painless and no paresthesia.
4. It is most commonly located in the mandible, with 75% occurring in the molar and ascending
ramus areas.
5. Lesions of the maxilla are located in the molar area and may extend to the maxillary sinus and
floor of the nose.
6. Age: patients between 20 to 40 years of age.
7. No significant sex or race predilection exists.
Tendency to expand the bony cortices.
Thinned outer shell of bone cracks easily when palpated—a
diagnostic sign referred to as “eggshell cracking.”
RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES
Multilocular lesions are described as having a “soap bubble”
appearance (when the radiolucent loculations are large) or as being
“honeycombed” (when the loculations are small)
The desmoplastic ameloblastoma has
a marked predilection to occur in the anterior regions
of
the jaws, with equal distribution between the
mandible and
the maxilla.
Buccal and lingual cortical expansion
Resorption of the roots of teeth adjacent
to the tumor
HISTOPATHOLOGY
1. Reverse polarization in basal cell layer in
the epithelium
2. The cytoplasm adjacent to the basement
membrane assumes a clear zone.
3. DD: calcifying odontogenic cysts and
odontogenic keratocysts.
4. Specific architectural patterns of
epithelium: two most common are the
follicular and plexiform patterns
The follicular pattern
1. Most prevalent
2. It consists of epithelium in the form of islands, strands, and
medullary arrangements.
3. Background stroma of fibrous connective tissue.
4. The epithelial arrangements:
• Outer border : the palisaded ameloblast-like cells in which
reversed polarization has occurred.
• Inside: loosely arranged and widely separated triangular-
shaped cells that are similar to those of the stellate reticulum.
5. A distinctive zone of hyalinization surrounds the epithelial
islands
Acanthomatous pattern: the central cells are transformed to squamous cells that produce keratin within
individual cells or in the form of keratin pearls.
Granular cell variant: The central cells appear swollen and densely packed with eosinophilic granules
Basal cell variant
1. Only densely packed, large proliferating cuboidal-shaped basaloid cells exist in narrow strands
2. Without stellate reticulum or other forms of centrally located epithelial cells
Desmoplastic ameloblastoma
1. The epithelial islands and strands are
small and have cuboidal and darkly
stained cells.
2. The epithelial component is widely
separated by fibrous tissue that is
dense and scarlike.
3. Small islands and cords of odontogenic
epithelium in a densely collagenized
stroma.
4. A particular predilection for
penetrating the surrounding
trabecular bone and remaining
undetected. (metaplastic potential)
Desmoplastic ameloblastoma
• This variant has a mixed radiolucent and radiopaque radiographic
appearance that resembles a fibro-osseous lesion.
Why is it more difficult to treat?
• It appears to have a particular predilection for penetrating the
surrounding trabecular bone and remaining undetected.
• Consequently, finding the exact interface of the lesion with normal
bone is especially difficult during surgical management.
The plexiform pattern
1. Epithelium in a fishnet or mesh
arrangement with columnar or cuboidal
ameloblast-like cells
2. No reversed polarization of the nucleus in
basal cells.
3. General pattern: thin anastomosing strands
of odontogenic epithelium.
4. Large and small cystlike areas are present in
the connective tissue (as compared to
epithelial islands in follicular pattern).
Unicystic Ameloblastoma
CLINICAL FEATURES
1. Age: 16 to 20 years of age
2. The unicystic ameloblastoma
occurs in a dentigerous cyst
relationship

lumen.
3. The epithelial lining of the
lumen :

• Hyperchromatic
• Reverse polarization of
nucleus
4. The remaining layers
resemble stellate reticulum.
Intraluminal
unicystic
ameloblastoma
Epithelium is
thickened in
some areas with
papillary
projections
extending into
the lumen.
Mural unicystic
ameloblastoma
When the thickened
lining penetrates the
adjacent capsule.
Plexiform
unicystic ameloblastoma
Intraluminal nodular
projections that contain a
network or mesh pattern of
epithelium.
Peripheral Ameloblastoma
1. Limited to the soft tissues of the
gingiva.
2. Arises directly from the
overlying epithelium or from the
remnants of the dental lamina
located in the extraosseous soft
tissue.
DDs:
• odontogenic hamartoma
• peripheral odontogenic fibroma
CLINICAL FEATURES
1. Age: 23 to 82 years of age
2. Mandible > Maxilla
3. Appear as firm sessile nodules of the gingiva
4. Size : 0.5 to 2.0 cm.
5. They have a smooth surface and normal coloration.
6. May be erythematous or ulcerated.
RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES
• Lesions are primarily extraosseous.
• A superficial saucerization of the cortical plate that
appears as a cup-shaped radiolucency beneath the
elevated nodule as the result of the pressure the lesion
exerts on the bone.
• Tooth separation.
HISTOPATHOLOGY
1. Islands and strands of odontogenic
epithelium.

4. it usually contains spherical and diffuse calcifications within the epithelial islands and the
connective tissue stroma.
5. CEOT occurs as either a central (intraosseous) or peripheral (extraosseous) lesion
CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL
ODONTOGENIC TUMOR
• CLINICAL FEATURES

CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL
ODONTOGENIC TUMOR
• RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES
• A diffuse radiolucency with faint flecks of calcified structures.
CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL
ODONTOGENIC TUMOR

2. The radiopaque areas can be diffuse and faint or discrete, round structures.
3. Intraosseous lesions may occur over teeth that are unerupted, displaced, or
both.
4. Small lesions are often unilocular radiolucencies.
5. Lesions have indistinct lines of demarcation with the surrounding bone.
CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL
ODONTOGENIC TUMOR
Because CEOT usually occurs over unerupted teeth and may be a
radiolucent or mixed unilocular lesion, the radiographic differential
diagnosis of CEOT includes
• dentigerous cyst
• adenomatoid odontogenic tumor
• ameloblastic fibro-odontoma
The peripheral lesions are commonly radiolucent. Sometimes
lesions exhibit superficial cortical erosion.
HISTOPATHOLOGY
1. Sheets of polyhedral cells with prominent intercellular
bridges.
2. Stains positive with Congo red stain and thioflavine T,
shows positivity for
1. * amyloid deposits (it give apple green bifringence)
2. it can also be positive for
3. *tissue degeneration, *type IV collagen and *basal lamina,
*enamel matrix, or *keratin
3. Multiple concentric Liesegang ring calcifications seen.
4. The cells may exhibit
• pleomorphism
• multinucleation
• prominent nucleoli
• hyperchromatism
• Pools of homogeneous eosinophilic
material are often found within and
between the sheets of epithelial cells
• Scattered spherical calcifications.
• When clear cells dominate the
epithelial component, the lesion is
referred to as clear cell variant of
CEOT.
ADENOMATOID ODONTOGENIC TUMOR
• Clinical location around the
crown of a tooth
• Lesion probably originates
from the reduced enamel
epithelium.
• Lesion is biologically
nonaggressive and requires
conservative treatment

epithelium
that usually occurs around
the crowns of unerupted
anterior teeth of young
patients and consists of
epithelium in swirls and
ductal patterns interspersed
with spherical calcifications.

3. Lesions often surround the crown of an
impacted tooth, as they do in a
dentigerous cyst.
4. However, close examination reveals that
AOT differs from a dentigerous cyst,
because the radiolucency usually extends
apically beyond the cemento-enamel
junction.

odontogenic epithelium that
microscopically resembles
ameloblastoma but differs by
containing ghost cells and spherical
calcifications.
Also called odontogenic ghost cell tumor

ODONTOMA
• Odontomas are composed of mature enamel, dentin, and pulp
• May be compound or complex.
• Because most occur during the period of normal tooth development
and often reach a fixed size, they are not considered true neoplasms,
but hamartomas.
A usually hamartomatous lesion commonly
found over unerupted teeth and containing enamel, dentin,
pulp, and cementum in either recognizable tooth shapes
(compound) or a solid, gnarled mass (complex).
CLINICAL FEATURES
• 70% of all
odontogenic tumors.
• First and second
decades
• Maxilla > Mandible
• Tooth fails to erupt at
its scheduled time
• Asymptomatic
swelling around the
tooth.
RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES
• Compound odontomas are usually
located in the anterior part of the mouth,
either over the crowns of unerupted
teeth or between the roots of erupted
ones.
• Lesions are usually unilocular, containing
multiple radiopaque structures that
resemble miniature teeth.
• Compound odontomas may contain as
few as 2 to 3 miniature toothlike
structures or as many as 20 to 30.
A complex odontoma is most commonly found
in the posterior parts of the mandible over
impacted teeth and can attain sizes up to
several centimeters.
They appear as a solid radiopaque mass
exhibiting some nodularity and are surrounded
by a thin, radiolucent zone.
The lesions are unilocular and separated
from normal bone by a distinct line of
cortication. Individual toothlike structures are
absent.
HISTOPATHOLOGY
The enamel, dentin, and pulpal
tissue of the toothlike
structures of compound
odontoma are arranged in an
orderly pattern.
Within the surrounding
capsule, a thin band of
follicular connective tissue
separates each miniature
conical tooth.
Complex odontoma differs by being composed of
a single, gnarled, disorganized mass of enamel,
dentin, and pulp, with no recognizable tooth
shapes.
Both compound and complex
forms may also contain reduced enamel
epithelium, secretory ameloblasts, and functional
odontoblasts.
Islands of odontogenic rests and spherical
calcifications are common in the surrounding
connective tissue.
AMELOBLASTIC FIBRO-ODONTOMA
An expansile growth in young
patients that contains the soft
tissue components of
ameloblastic fibroma and the
hard tissue components of
complex odontoma.
CLINICAL FEATURES
• First and second
decades
• It is primarily
located in the
posterior areas of
the mandible
• It appears as a
slowly developing
swelling of the
affected portion of
the jaw, usually in
the area of an
unerupted tooth.
RADIOGRAPHIC
FEATURES
• Unilocular, well-
circumscribed, mixed
radiolucent and radiopaque
lesion.
• The opacities are usually
diffuse and nodular.
• Most lesions also contain an
impacted tooth.
HISTOPATHOLOGY
• Areas consist of strands and cords of epithelium that resemble dental lamina
• Background of embryonic connective tissue composed of randomly oriented fibroblasts.
• In adjacent areas, both mature and immature forms of complex odontoma can be found.
• The lesion may be slightly lobular but is always surrounded by a well-formed capsule.
MALIGNANT
ODONTOGENIC
TUMORS
MALIGNANT AMELOBLASTOMA
• Ameloblastomas in which metastasis
has occurred to regional lymph nodes
or to other distant sites, the lungs
being most common.
• Recurrance occurs.
A lesion with the
histopathologic features of
common ameloblastoma in
which documented
metastasis has occurred.
AMELOBLASTIC CARCINOMA
An aggressive neoplasm
of the mandible or maxilla in which the
epithelial component
exhibits features of ameloblastoma but
with notable cytologic malignancy.
The ameloblastic carcinoma differs
from malignant ameloblastoma in
that portions of its epithelial
component are composed of
cytologically malignant cells, yet
the lesion is still readily recognizable
as ameloblastoma
The ameloblastic carcinoma differs
from malignant ameloblastoma in
that portions of its epithelial
component are composed of
cytologically malignant cells, yet
the lesion is still readily recognizable
as ameloblastoma
ODONTOGENIC CARCINOMA
• The radiographic appearance exhibits a
diffuse “honeycomb” radiolucency, a
feature that is consistent with an aggressive
destructive intraosseous lesion.
• Islands and strands of clear cells present.
• The epithelial structures are usually
surrounded by zones of myxomatous
connective tissue.
An aggressive and
destructive intraosseous
lesion of the mandible or
maxilla that consists of
poorly differentiated
epithelial cells and
clear cells in a pattern that
is reminiscent of early
odontogenesis.
The usual features of malignancy,
such as high mitotic index, hyperchromatism,
and pleomorphism, are not usually found in
these lesions.
Odontogenic carcinoma
is difficult to cure because it is very infiltrative and has
a high rate of recurrence.

ODONTOGENIC TUMORS: KEY FEATURES OF AMELOBLASTOMA, CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR AND ADENOMATOID ODONTOGENIC TUMOR

  • 1. ODONTOGENIC TUMORS Sana Rasheed ODONTOGENIC TUMORS Sana Rasheed Akhtar Saeed Medical and Dental College, Lahore, Pakistan
  • 2.
  • 4. AMELOBLASTOMA A locally aggressive neoplasm of odontogenic epithelium that has a wide spectrum of histologic patterns resembling early odontogenesis. • It is a benign neoplasm. Four sources: (1) remnants of the dental lamina (rests of Serres) (2) reduced enamel epithelium (3) rests of Malassez (4) the basal cell layer of overlying surface epithelium
  • 5.
  • 6. Common features: • Slow growing • Locally aggressive • Capable of causing large facial deformities • A high recurrence rate • Metastasis is rare
  • 7. Common Ameloblastoma CONVENTIONAL SOLID OR MULTICYSTIC INTRAOSSEOUS AMELOBLASTOMA Oth er n ames : simp le or follic u lar amelob lastoma • occur in patients over 25 years of age • third to seventh decades of life (25+ to 60s) CLINICAL FEATURES 1. May produce extensive, even grotesque, deformities of the mandible and maxilla. 2. Often asymptomatic , painless, bony expansion. 3. Painless and no paresthesia. 4. It is most commonly located in the mandible, with 75% occurring in the molar and ascending ramus areas. 5. Lesions of the maxilla are located in the molar area and may extend to the maxillary sinus and floor of the nose. 6. Age: patients between 20 to 40 years of age. 7. No significant sex or race predilection exists.
  • 8.
  • 9. Tendency to expand the bony cortices. Thinned outer shell of bone cracks easily when palpated—a diagnostic sign referred to as “eggshell cracking.” RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES Multilocular lesions are described as having a “soap bubble” appearance (when the radiolucent loculations are large) or as being “honeycombed” (when the loculations are small)
  • 10.
  • 11.
  • 12. The desmoplastic ameloblastoma has a marked predilection to occur in the anterior regions of the jaws, with equal distribution between the mandible and the maxilla. Buccal and lingual cortical expansion Resorption of the roots of teeth adjacent to the tumor
  • 13.
  • 14. HISTOPATHOLOGY 1. Reverse polarization in basal cell layer in the epithelium 2. The cytoplasm adjacent to the basement membrane assumes a clear zone. 3. DD: calcifying odontogenic cysts and odontogenic keratocysts. 4. Specific architectural patterns of epithelium: two most common are the follicular and plexiform patterns
  • 15.
  • 16. The follicular pattern 1. Most prevalent 2. It consists of epithelium in the form of islands, strands, and medullary arrangements. 3. Background stroma of fibrous connective tissue. 4. The epithelial arrangements: • Outer border : the palisaded ameloblast-like cells in which reversed polarization has occurred. • Inside: loosely arranged and widely separated triangular- shaped cells that are similar to those of the stellate reticulum. 5. A distinctive zone of hyalinization surrounds the epithelial islands
  • 17.
  • 18.
  • 19.
  • 20.
  • 21.
  • 22. Acanthomatous pattern: the central cells are transformed to squamous cells that produce keratin within individual cells or in the form of keratin pearls. Granular cell variant: The central cells appear swollen and densely packed with eosinophilic granules
  • 23.
  • 24.
  • 25.
  • 26. Basal cell variant 1. Only densely packed, large proliferating cuboidal-shaped basaloid cells exist in narrow strands 2. Without stellate reticulum or other forms of centrally located epithelial cells
  • 27. Desmoplastic ameloblastoma 1. The epithelial islands and strands are small and have cuboidal and darkly stained cells. 2. The epithelial component is widely separated by fibrous tissue that is dense and scarlike. 3. Small islands and cords of odontogenic epithelium in a densely collagenized stroma. 4. A particular predilection for penetrating the surrounding trabecular bone and remaining undetected. (metaplastic potential)
  • 28.
  • 29. Desmoplastic ameloblastoma • This variant has a mixed radiolucent and radiopaque radiographic appearance that resembles a fibro-osseous lesion. Why is it more difficult to treat? • It appears to have a particular predilection for penetrating the surrounding trabecular bone and remaining undetected. • Consequently, finding the exact interface of the lesion with normal bone is especially difficult during surgical management.
  • 30. The plexiform pattern 1. Epithelium in a fishnet or mesh arrangement with columnar or cuboidal ameloblast-like cells 2. No reversed polarization of the nucleus in basal cells. 3. General pattern: thin anastomosing strands of odontogenic epithelium. 4. Large and small cystlike areas are present in the connective tissue (as compared to epithelial islands in follicular pattern).
  • 31.
  • 32.
  • 33.
  • 34.
  • 35. Unicystic Ameloblastoma CLINICAL FEATURES 1. Age: 16 to 20 years of age 2. The unicystic ameloblastoma occurs in a dentigerous cyst relationship 3. Usually associated with a severely displaced third molar. 4. Mandible > Maxilla. RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES 1. Unilocular lesions 2. Well demarcated 3. Corticated. 4. A tooth is often present within the radiolucency. 5. Root displacement in premolar area.
  • 36.
  • 37. HISTOPATHOLOGY 1. Fibrous connective tissue capsule. 2. A solitary large fluid-filled lumen. 3. The epithelial lining of the lumen : • Pallisaded basal cells • Hyperchromatic • Reverse polarization of nucleus 4. The remaining layers resemble stellate reticulum. Intraluminal unicystic ameloblastoma Epithelium is thickened in some areas with papillary projections extending into the lumen. Mural unicystic ameloblastoma When the thickened lining penetrates the adjacent capsule. Plexiform unicystic ameloblastoma Intraluminal nodular projections that contain a network or mesh pattern of epithelium.
  • 38.
  • 39.
  • 40. Peripheral Ameloblastoma 1. Limited to the soft tissues of the gingiva. 2. Arises directly from the overlying epithelium or from the remnants of the dental lamina located in the extraosseous soft tissue. DDs: • odontogenic hamartoma • peripheral odontogenic fibroma
  • 41. CLINICAL FEATURES 1. Age: 23 to 82 years of age 2. Mandible > Maxilla 3. Appear as firm sessile nodules of the gingiva 4. Size : 0.5 to 2.0 cm. 5. They have a smooth surface and normal coloration. 6. May be erythematous or ulcerated. RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES • Lesions are primarily extraosseous. • A superficial saucerization of the cortical plate that appears as a cup-shaped radiolucency beneath the elevated nodule as the result of the pressure the lesion exerts on the bone. • Tooth separation.
  • 42. HISTOPATHOLOGY 1. Islands and strands of odontogenic epithelium. 2. Acanthomatous pattern common: central areas of keratin formation or the cystic pattern. 3. The epithelial islands and strands are usually surrounded by fibrous tissue. 4. A cup-shaped resorption of the cortical plate.
  • 43.
  • 44. CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR • A locally aggressive tumor consisting of strands and medullary patterns of squamous and clear cells that are often accompanied by spherical calcifications and amyloid- staining hyaline deposits.
  • 45. CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR 1. Other name : “Pindborg tumor.” 2. Locally aggressive 3. Origin: It is thought to originate from the epithelial rests of the dental lamina or from the reduced enamel epithelium that overlies the crowns of the teeth 4. it usually contains spherical and diffuse calcifications within the epithelial islands and the connective tissue stroma. 5. CEOT occurs as either a central (intraosseous) or peripheral (extraosseous) lesion
  • 46.
  • 47. CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR • CLINICAL FEATURES Peripheral CEOT most commonly occurs in the anterior part of the mouth. It presents as a superficial soft tissue swelling of the gingiva in tooth-bearing and edentulous areas of the jaws Nasal airway obstruction, epistaxis, and proptosis are sometimes experienced in the maxilla. ages of 20 and 60 years 2/3rd in the mandible. Molar area most frequently, then premolar. slowly enlarging, painless mass
  • 48. CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR • RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES • A diffuse radiolucency with faint flecks of calcified structures.
  • 49. CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR 1. A mixture of radiolucent and radiopaque areas. 2. The radiopaque areas can be diffuse and faint or discrete, round structures. 3. Intraosseous lesions may occur over teeth that are unerupted, displaced, or both. 4. Small lesions are often unilocular radiolucencies. 5. Lesions have indistinct lines of demarcation with the surrounding bone.
  • 50.
  • 51. CALCIFYING EPITHELIAL ODONTOGENIC TUMOR Because CEOT usually occurs over unerupted teeth and may be a radiolucent or mixed unilocular lesion, the radiographic differential diagnosis of CEOT includes • dentigerous cyst • adenomatoid odontogenic tumor • ameloblastic fibro-odontoma The peripheral lesions are commonly radiolucent. Sometimes lesions exhibit superficial cortical erosion.
  • 52. HISTOPATHOLOGY 1. Sheets of polyhedral cells with prominent intercellular bridges. 2. Stains positive with Congo red stain and thioflavine T, shows positivity for 1. * amyloid deposits (it give apple green bifringence) 2. it can also be positive for 3. *tissue degeneration, *type IV collagen and *basal lamina, *enamel matrix, or *keratin 3. Multiple concentric Liesegang ring calcifications seen. 4. The cells may exhibit • pleomorphism • multinucleation • prominent nucleoli • hyperchromatism
  • 53.
  • 54.
  • 55. • Pools of homogeneous eosinophilic material are often found within and between the sheets of epithelial cells • Scattered spherical calcifications. • When clear cells dominate the epithelial component, the lesion is referred to as clear cell variant of CEOT.
  • 56.
  • 57.
  • 58.
  • 59. ADENOMATOID ODONTOGENIC TUMOR • Clinical location around the crown of a tooth • Lesion probably originates from the reduced enamel epithelium. • Lesion is biologically nonaggressive and requires conservative treatment A wellcircumscribed lesion derived from odontogenic epithelium that usually occurs around the crowns of unerupted anterior teeth of young patients and consists of epithelium in swirls and ductal patterns interspersed with spherical calcifications.
  • 60.
  • 61. CLINICAL FEATURES 1. The AOT is usually associated with an impacted tooth and is often a cause of failure of the tooth to erupt. 2. Age: the second decade of life, 14 to 15 years of age. 3. Gender: Females > Men 4. Location: Anterior mouth, usually around an impacted cuspid. 5. Appearance: An area of swelling over an unerupted tooth. DD: 1. dentigerous cyst 2. unicystic ameloblastoma, CEOT 3. calcifying odontogenic cyst
  • 62. RADIOGRAPHIC FEATURES 1. A unilocular lesion with well-corticated borders that contains a tooth. 2. Radiolucent lesions, but some contain faint flecks of radiopacities. 3. Lesions often surround the crown of an impacted tooth, as they do in a dentigerous cyst. 4. However, close examination reveals that AOT differs from a dentigerous cyst, because the radiolucency usually extends apically beyond the cemento-enamel junction.
  • 63.
  • 64. HISTOPATHOLOGY 1. Outer capsule of fibrous connective tissue 2. A nodular pattern of epithelial cells. 3. Solid or contain focal cystic areas. 4. The nodules are composed of spindled epithelial cells that are often in a swirled pattern. 5. Distinctive feature of AOT : Ductal epithelial structures composed of a circular arrangement of columnar cells with periodic acid-Schiff (PAS)-positive eosinophilic material. Hyaline rings. 6. Spherical calcifications 7. Diffuse areas of hyaline material in the stroma

Within the surrounding capsule, a thin band of follicular connective tissue separates each miniature conical tooth. Complex odontoma differs by being composed of a single, gnarled, disorganized mass of enamel, dentin, and pulp, with no recognizable tooth shapes. Both compound and complex forms may also contain reduced enamel epithelium, secretory ameloblasts, and functional odontoblasts. Islands of odontogenic rests and spherical calcifications are common in the surrounding connective tissue.

  • 126. ODONTOGENIC CARCINOMA • The radiographic appearance exhibits a diffuse “honeycomb” radiolucency, a feature that is consistent with an aggressive destructive intraosseous lesion. • Islands and strands of clear cells present. • The epithelial structures are usually surrounded by zones of myxomatous connective tissue. An aggressive and destructive intraosseous lesion of the mandible or maxilla that consists of poorly differentiated epithelial cells and clear cells in a pattern that is reminiscent of early odontogenesis. The usual features of malignancy, such as high mitotic index, hyperchromatism, and pleomorphism, are not usually found in these lesions. Odontogenic carcinoma is difficult to cure because it is very infiltrative and has a high rate of recurrence.
