Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic Tumor: A Case Report

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a rare benign odontogenic tumor which accounts for approximately 1% of the entire odontogenic tumor. It was firstly described by Pindborg, and thus, is also referred to as the “Pindborg tumor”. Histologically, Pindborg tumor consists of three distinct histological components: sheets of polyhedral epithelial cells, amyloid like deposits, and calcifications. This case report describes a case of Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor in 26 years old female patient presented with the swelling in right posterior region of mandible. Taking into account of the aggressive nature of the lesion segmental resection of the mandible followed by reconstruction was planned for treatment. This case report highlights the importance of appropriate clinical, radiographical and histological correlation for the correct diagnosis and treatment of Pindborg tumor.

“…An extracellular eosinophilic homogenous material staining like amyloid is characteristic of this tumor with concentric calcific deposits called Liesgang ring. 13,14 Treatment of CEOT has ranged from enucleation or curettage to radical and extensive resection such as hemi mandibulectomy or hemimaxillectomy. Treatment plan is dependent on various factors such as size, location.…”

The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a benign epithelial odontogenic lesion that accounts for less than 1% of all odontogenic tumors. CEOT is usually asymptomatic and an incidental radiological finding, often presenting as a mandibular radiolucency with flecks of calcified material. We report a case of CEOT in the right posterior maxilla of a 24-year-old female that was associated with an ectopic unerupted tooth. The tumour in this case caused mild pain and appeared radiographically similar to an odontoma or Ameloblastic fibro-odontome, due to its dense calcified contents. Diagnosis was confirmed through histopathology. This case report highlights the unusual clinical and radiographic appearence of Pindborg tumor.

“…When present in the maxilla, the CEOT is preferentially located in the posterior region and are more aggressive. 2 Most CEOT cases, nearly 52%, are associated with impacted or unerupted teeth or odontomas. CEOT with extension into the maxillary sinus is uncommon.…”

Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour (CEOT), also known as Pindborg tumour, is a rare benign odontogenic tumour of locally aggressive behaviour forming 0.4-3.0% of all intraosseous tumours and 1% of all odontogenic tumours. CEOT is traditionally described as a rare, benign, locally-invasive, and slow-growing odontogenic neoplasm of exclusively epithelial tissue of origin. The most frequent location is the mandibular premolar and molar area, less frequently the lesion is found in the maxilla in the ratio 3:1, typically in the fourth to fifth decades of life with no gender predilection. It usually starts as a painless swelling and is often concurrent with an impacted tooth. The present case highlight the occurrence of CEOT in a younger individual on the unusual site i.e. in the left maxillary canine and premolar region as a painless swelling. This article also attempts to briefly emphasize the concepts of CEOT with the review of literature.
