This study aims to analyze the frequency and distribution of odontogenic tumors in a Greek population and compare the findings with those reported in the recent literature.
Records of the Department of Oral Medicine and Pathology, Dental School, University of Athens, with histologic diagnosis of odontogenic tumors (based on the World Health Organization 2005 classification) were reviewed retrospectively from January 1970 to December 2011.
A total of 652 cases of odontogenic tumors were reported. Of these, 651 (99.8%) were benign and only 1 (0.2%) was malignant. Keratocystic odontogenic tumor was the most frequent lesion (52.7%), followed by odontoma (18.9%) and ameloblastoma (16.1%). The mean age of patients was 38.0 years with a wide range (2.5-92 years).
Odontogenic tumors are rare lesions and appear to show a definite geographic variation. In Athens, Greece, they are presented mainly by the keratocystic odontogenic tumor, odontoma, and ameloblastoma.
本研究旨在分析希腊人群中牙源性肿瘤的发生率和分布情况，并将研究结果与近期文献报道的结果进行比较。
回顾性分析雅典大学牙科学院口腔医学与病理学系1970年1月至2011年12月间组织学诊断为牙源性肿瘤（基于世界卫生组织2005年分类）的病例记录。
共报告652例牙源性肿瘤病例。其中，651例（99.8%）为良性，仅1例（0.2%）为恶性。角化囊性牙源性肿瘤是最常见的病变（52.7%），其次是牙瘤（18.9%）和成釉细胞瘤（16.1%）。患者的平均年龄为38.0岁，范围较广（2.5 - 92岁）。
牙源性肿瘤是罕见病变，且似乎存在明显的地域差异。在希腊雅典，它们主要表现为角化囊性牙源性肿瘤、牙瘤和成釉细胞瘤。
