In children, and specifically in infants, odontogenic myxomas are extremely rare. In infants, myxoma seems to display mostly the same clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics. This paper presents a series of odontogenic myxomas in infant patients.
Four infant patients were included in this retrospective study. The clinical, radiological and pathological presentation was characterized and the treatment analysed.
All patients presented with a rapidly evolving paranasal swelling. CT-scan showed a maxillary homogeneous unilocular and intraosseous tumour. In all cases, pathological examination revealed a loose myxoid stroma within stellate and spindle shaped cells. All patients underwent conservative surgery through a vestibular approach.
This patient series and a review of the literature demonstrates that odontogenic myxoma is specific in infant. We propose the name of Infant Odontogenic Myxoma for this entity.
在儿童中，尤其是婴儿，牙源性黏液瘤极为罕见。在婴儿中，黏液瘤似乎大多表现出相同的临床、放射学和病理学特征。本文介绍了一系列婴儿患者的牙源性黏液瘤。
本回顾性研究纳入了4例婴儿患者。对其临床、放射学和病理学表现进行了特征描述，并对治疗方法进行了分析。
所有患者均表现为迅速发展的鼻旁肿胀。CT扫描显示上颌骨内有一个均匀的单房性骨内肿瘤。在所有病例中，病理检查均显示星状和梭形细胞内有疏松的黏液样基质。所有患者均通过前庭入路接受了保守手术。
该患者系列及文献回顾表明，牙源性黏液瘤在婴儿中具有特异性。我们建议将该实体命名为婴儿牙源性黏液瘤。
