Abstract

The calcifying odontogenic cyst may present some problems of differential diagnosis, both clinically and histopathologically. The present article reports the case of a calcifying odontogenic cyst in the maxilla of a 54-year-old woman. The histopathologic examination showed that structures characteristic of calcifying odontogenic cyst and odontogenic tumor of ameloblastoma-like appearance occurred simultaneously. The lesion was benign. After surgical removal of the cyst, the wound healed uneventfully and the region was free of symptoms 12 months postoperatively.
