Quiste inflamatorio con tejido calcificado: presentación de un caso clínico / Inflammatory cyst with calcified tissue: presentation of a clinical case

Objetivo: Describir un caso de quiste odontogénico in- flamatorio cuya presentación imagenológica no es la habitual. Caso clínico: Acude a la clínica profesional de Pato- logía Oral de la Universidad Andrés Bello una paciente de género femenino de 13 años, sin antecedentes mórbidos, con un hallazgo radiográfico de lesión mixta ubicada entre los premolares inferiores derechos. Es derivada al posgrado de cirugía oral y maxilofacial para que le realicen una biopsia excisional de la lesión con una hipótesis diagnóstica de tumor odontogénico adenomatoide. Una vez realizado el estudio histopatológico, se define la lesión como quiste odontogénico inflamatorio, que por las características clínicas-radiográficas podría corresponder con un quiste residual de un diente tem- poral. Debido a la variabilidad en la presentación clínica e ima- genológica de las lesiones quísticas maxilofaciales, el estudio anatomopatológico es imprescindible para un correcto diag- nóstico y tratamiento (AU)

Aim: To present a case of inflammatory odontogenic cyst with unusual imaging presentation. Clinical case: A 13-year-old female patient, with no history of morbidity, with a radiographic finding of a mixed lesion located between the lower right premolars. The patient visited the professional Oral Pathology clinic of the Andrés Bello University and was referred to postgraduate oral and maxillofacial surgery for an excisional biopsy of the lesion, with a diagnostic hypothesis of adenomatoid odontogenic tu- mor. After the histopathological study, the lesion was defined as an inflammatory odontogenic cyst, which, based on clini- cal-radiographic characteristics, could be a residual cyst of a primary tooth. Due to the variability in the clinical and imaging pres- entation of maxillofacial cystic lesions, anatomopathological study is essential for correct diagnosis and treatment (AU)

Perfil clínico e histopatológico do cisto odontogênico calcificante: relato de caso / Clinical and histopathological features of calcifying odontogenic cyst: case report

O cisto odontogênico calcificante (COC) é considerado como condição patológica benigna de ocorrência rara em maxila e mandíbula, caracterizado por revestimento cístico de células epiteliais odontogênicas, contendo células fantasmas com propensão a regiões de calcificação. Neste artigo, descreveu-se a configuração clínica e histopatológica do COC por meio de relato de caso submetido a tratamento cirúrgico e acompanhamento pós-operatório. Paciente de 11 anos apresentou aumento de volume em região maxilar à esquerda, próxima ao sulco nasolabial e sem sintomatologia dolorosa. Os exames radiográficos indicaram lesão radiolúcida, bem circunscrita e expansiva em maxila, que foi submetida a enucleação associada a ostectomia marginal das paredes corticais ósseas. O histopatológico revelou revestimento cístico com epitélio odontogênico ameloblástico, ninhos espalhados de células fantasmas e regiões eosinofílicas de material compatível com dentinóide. Evidenciou-se, assim, perfil clínico de COC, que pode ser confundido com outras lesões císticas ou tumorais, sendo essencial o diagnóstico por meio de análise histopatológica. A abordagem cirúrgica proporcionou adequado diagnóstico e tratamento. Após acompanhamento clínico e radiográfico, não houve recorrência do COC.

Calcifying odontogenic Cyst (COC) has been considering as benign pathological ill and rare occurrence in maxilla and mandible, there been showed odontogenic epithelial cystic lining demonstrating ghost cells with a propensity to calcify. In this article, we described the clinical and histopathological features from case reported who had undergone surgical approach and postoperative follow-up. A 11 year-old-girl had presented volumetric increased in left maxilla area near nasolabial fold. The radiography images had indicated radiolucent lesion, well-circumscribed and wide on cortical maxillary bone, which was undergone enucleation associated with marginal osteotomy on the bone cortical walls. The histopathological features showed cystic lining with odontogenic epithelium containing ghost cells and some areas with eosinophilic matrix material compatible dentinoid. Thus, it was evidenced a clinical features of COC which could be confused with other cystic or tumoral lesions, there being essential on diagnosis and treatment. After clinical and radiographic follow-up during 07 years, there was no recurrence of the COC.

Calcifying Cystic Odontogenic Tumor: A Case Report and Review.

Calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor (CCOT) are uncommon benign slow-growing cysts of developmental origin partly exhibiting characteristics of a neoplasm. Until date, the exact behavior of CCOT had been enigmatic and still the lesion portrays a platform to be debatable. The lesion has been reviewed and readdressed from the date first reported about its diverse clinical and histopathological features. The name of the lesion itself has undergone extensive review for the same reason. We report a case of calcifying odontogenic cyst in the mandible with a review of the literature. This paper also highlights the update on nomenclature and classification.
