Odontogenic myxoma is a rare benign but locally aggressive odontogenic tumor. This report describes a case of odontogenic myxoma producing diffusely dispersed calcified products in a pattern reminiscent of a fibro-osseous lesion of the jaw. Differential diagnoses for myxoid lesions of the jaws also are discussed. This paper highlights how an odontogenic myxoma can produce a large amount of calcified products to mimic a fibro-osseous process.
牙源性黏液瘤是一种罕见的良性但具有局部侵袭性的牙源性肿瘤。本报告描述了一例牙源性黏液瘤,其产生弥漫性分散的钙化产物,其形态让人联想到颌骨的纤维骨性病变。文中还讨论了颌骨黏液样病变的鉴别诊断。本文强调了牙源性黏液瘤如何能够产生大量钙化产物以模仿纤维骨病变过程。
