The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a benign but locally aggressive tumor. Occasionally the term Pindborg tumor is used after the Danish pathologist who first described this tumor as an entity. The clinical feature is most commonly a slow-growing painless swelling. The tumor may show considerable roentgenographic variation. Usually this tumor shows characteristic histological features. Some variants can mimic malignant neoplasms. The invasive nature is not so obvious as that of an ameloblastoma, nevertheless it has to be treated in the same way. A long follow-up period is indicated since recurrence can occur after many years. A patient with a characteristic Pindborg tumor is presented.
钙化上皮性牙源性肿瘤是一种良性但具有局部侵袭性的肿瘤。偶尔会使用“平博肿瘤”这一术语，以纪念首位将此肿瘤作为一个独立实体进行描述的丹麦病理学家。其临床特征最常见的是生长缓慢的无痛性肿胀。该肿瘤在X线表现上可能有很大差异。通常此肿瘤具有特征性的组织学特征。一些变异型可类似恶性肿瘤。其侵袭性不像成釉细胞瘤那么明显，但仍需采用相同的治疗方法。由于多年后可能会复发，因此需要进行长期随访。本文介绍了一例具有典型平博肿瘤的患者。
