SIMPLE CYSTIC VARIANT OF CALCIFYING CYSTIC ODONTOGENIC TUMOR (CCOT) ASSOCIATED WITH AN IMPACTED CANINE: A RARE PATHOLOGICAL ENTITY
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
Calcifying Cystic Odontogenic Tumor (CCOT) was first described by Gorlin(1962) as Calcifying Odontogenic Cyst(COC)and accounts for only 1% of jaw cysts reported. Because of its histopathological diversity, there has always been controversy about its nature as a cyst or neoplasm. WHO (2005) has categorized this lesion from cystic - COC to neoplastic - CCOT. It has been found to be associated with various pathologies such as odontoma, ameloblastoma, ameloblastic fibroma. This paper presents clinicopathological, radiographic & histopathological features of a case of CCOT highlighting its histopathological subtypes.
