“…This theory was supported by the description of association other than CCOT and odontomas [21]. Other authors suggest that the CCOT develops secondarily from odontogenic epithelium within the odontoma [22,23]. However, it also has been suggested that the odontoma might develop secondarily from lining epithelium of the CCOT [24].…”

The so-called calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) represents a heterogeneous group of lesions that exhibit a variety of clinico-pathologic features. It is an uncommon lesion and represents less than 2% of all odontogenic cysts and tumors. Recently, these lesions have been reclassified as calcifying cystic odontogenic tumors (CCOT), according to the new World Health Organization (WHO) classification. CCOT are frequently found in association with, or containing areas histologically identical to, various types of odontogenic tumors, such as complex/compound odontomas. This work analyzed clinical and histological data deriving from 13 patients affected by CCOT associated with odontomas. Moreover, a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) analysis was undertaken to further a better understanding of the nature of this peculiar lesion.

“…10 CEOC is usually a nonaggressive cystic lesion which occur with equal frequency in the maxilla and mandible. [11][12][13] At least 75% of CEOC occurs in bone. About 75% of cases are found anterior to first molar especially associated with incisors and canines.…”

The Gorlin cyst (calcifying epithelial odontogenic cyst) is a rare lesion. Its clinical and radiological features are not pathognomonic, and is characterized by histological diversity. Radiographically, it presents as a unilocular or, occasionally, multilocular radiolucency that may contain calcified radiopacities or tooth-like densities. Microscopic appearance of odontogenic epithelium admixed with focal areas of dentinoid formation or calcification along with sheets of ghost cells gives the definitive diagnosis of Gorlin cyst. A rare case of Gorlin cyst, which present as swelling in the maxillary anterior edentulous region along with emphasis on review of literature, is presented in this paper.

“…Until 2003, the review of literature revealed only 3 cases of this combined tumor [37,38] . However, CEOC may occur in association with other odontogenic tumors, the most common is the odontomas [15,[39][40][41] . Ameloblastoma ex CEOC is also known to occur intraosseously, appearing as cyst-like radiolucent lesions [42] .…”

The combined epithelial odontogenic tumor is known to be an uncommon lesion characterized by the synchronous presentation of typical histological features of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, or Pindborg tumor. Combination between other types of odontogenic tumors has occasionally been reported in the literature. In this work we report 2 cases of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor associated with odontomas, one in a 16-year-old male patient and the other in an 11-year-old female child. The 2 cases, with this type of combination, seem to be the first reported in the literature. In addition, we report a third case of association between calcifying epithelial odontogenic cyst or Gorlin cyst and ameloblastoma in a 14-year-old female patient. This case seems also to be the fourth case reported in the literature. The cases reported in this present work were evaluated clinically, radiographically, and histologically.
