Abstract:

A radiographic picture of mixed bone destruction and osteosclerosis which is well-circumscribed and expansile is compatible with calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor Pindborg tumor. Because of the marked variation of calcification in the tumor, the radiologic appearance ranges from totally radiolucent to chiefly radiopaque. The size of the slowly-growing lesion corresponds to its duration. The differential diagnosis should include adenoameloblastoma, odontoma, ossifying fibroma, and osteomyelitis.
