Supriya Bhat, Shishir Ram Shetty, Subhas G. Babu, Pushparaja Shetty, Fazil Ka

Summary

Calcifying odontogenic cyst is a rare entity which was first described by Gorlin, and also accounts for 1% of the jaw cysts according to Shear. Due to its diverse histopathology and variable clinical features, there has been a doubt regarding its nature as a cyst or a neoplasm. In this report we present a case of calcifying odontogenic cyst with mural ameloblastomatous presentation in the left body of the mandible in a 19-year-old male patient. This is the 15th case of ameloblastomatous COC being documented in literature

Key words: calcifying odontogenic cyst, ameloblastoma.
