Term
List 6 tumors of odontogenic epithelium w/o odontogenic ectomesenchyme and their radiographic features.
Definition

-Ameloblastoma

  • Radiolucent, multilocular or unilocular, may be associated with an impacted tooth.

-Malignant ameloblastoma & ameloblastic carcinoma

 

-Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor

  • May be radiolucency mimicking a dentigerous cyst, but often has calcifications

-Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor

  •  Unilocular or multilocular radiolucency with or without calcificed structures

-Squamous odontogenic tumor

  •  Triangular radiolucent defect lateral to the root of teeth.

-Clear cell odontogenic tumor

  • Unilocular or multilocular radiolucency with somewhat ill-defined borders.
Term
List the 5 tumors of odontogenic epithelium with odontogenic ectomesenchyme, w/ or w/o dental hard tissue and their radiographic features.
Definition

Ameloblastic fibroma

  • Well-defined unilocular or multilocular radiolucency; 1/2 associated with impacted tooth.

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma

  • ill-defined destructive radiolucent lesion.

Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma

  • well-circumscribed unilocular (rarely multilocular) radiolucency with variable calcifications.

Odontoameloblastoma

  • Destructive radiolucency w/ radiopaque features of an odontoma.

Odontoma

  • Compound Type - radiographic features are usually diagnostic and consists of a clump of "toothlets."

  • Complex Type - Presents as a radiopaque mass with a narrow radiolucent rim.
Term
List the 5 tumors of odontogenic ectomesenchyme w/ or w/o included odontogenic epithelium and their radiographic features.
Definition

-Odontogenic fibroma

  •  Unilocular or multilocular radiolucency, root resorption is common.
  • The odontogenicfibroma usually appears as a well-defined, unilocularradiolucency.  It is often associated with the apical area of an erupted tooth.
    Larger lesions are often multilocular.
    Many odontogenicfibromas have sclerotic borders.
    Root resorption is common.

-Granular cell odontogenic fibroma

 

Typically appears as a well-demarcated radiolucency which may have some areas of opacity.

 

-Peripheral odontogenic fibroma


The lesion does not involve the underlying bone but areas of calcification may be seen in the soft tissues in some cases.

 

-Myxoma

  • Multilocular (tennis racquet) or unilocular radiolucency (often w/ scalloped border).

-Cementoblastoma

  • Well circumscribed calcified mass w/ peripheral lucent line and resorption of associated roots.
  • Radiographically, the lesion appears as an opaque lesion attached to and replacing the root of the involved tooth. Opaque spicules radiate from the central mass.
