ABSTRACT

Odotogenic myxoma is a benign tumor which presents in 3 percent to 6 percent of all odontogenic tumors. According to the WHO classification, multiple radiolucent areas of varying size, separated by straight or curved bony septa with poorly defined borders are the radiologic characteristics of the condition. We report the case of maxillary odontogenic myxoma in a 21 year old man. The radiological feature of the current case was interesting, due to the size of the lesion and severe displacement of the upper third molar.


El mixoma odontogénico es un tumor benigno que se presenta en el 3 por ciento a 6 por ciento de todos los tumores odontogénicos. De acuerdo a la clasificación de la OMS, las características radiológicas de esta patología presentan múltiples áreas radiolúcidas de tamaño variable, separadas por tabiques óseos rectos o curvos, con márgenes mal definidos. Presentamos un caso de mixoma odontogénico maxilar en un hombre de 21 años. La característica radiológica es interesante, debido al tamaño de la lesión y al desplazamiento severo del tercer molar superior.
