The adenomatoid odontogenic tumour most commonly presents as a 1.5-3 cm radiolucency in the anterior maxilla, and often associated with an unerupted tooth. It is very unusual for these tumours to occur behind the premolar region and the few reports of much bigger lesions have been in black African patients. This article describes an unusually large example of this tumour associated with an unerupted maxillary third molar tooth in a white female.
腺样牙源性肿瘤最常见的表现是上颌前部出现一个1.5 - 3厘米的透射区，且常与一颗未萌出的牙齿相关。这些肿瘤发生在双尖牙区之后的情况非常罕见，而关于更大病变的少数报告均来自非洲黑人患者。本文描述了一名白人女性中与一颗未萌出的上颌第三磨牙相关的该肿瘤的一个异常大的病例。
