Novel radiological features of multiple primary keratocystic odontogenic tumor: 11 cases of basal cell nevus syndrome / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate radiological features in early diagnosis for multiple primary keratocystic odontogenic tumor (MPKCOT). Methods: The radiologic data of 9 cases of MPKCOT were analyzed retrospectively, and used to give comprehensive diagnosis in 2 subsequent cases. Results: The primary lesions of MPKCOT showed some special imaging features, such as symmetry, constant position and asynchronism which appeared in the most cases. Conclusion: Basing on the features mentioned above, the minor primary lesions of MPKCOT in other regions can be diagnosed earlier.
