Multiple calcified hyperplastic dental follicles (MCHDF) are an extremely rare condition which has been categorized as a separate pathological entity very recently. It was initially described by Sandler et al. Gardner and Radden proposed this as a separate pathological entity. This disease is characterized by multiple unerupted teeth with abundant calcifications and rests of odontogenic epithelium in enlarged dental follicles.
多发性钙化增生性牙滤泡(MCHDF)是一种极为罕见的病症,最近才被归类为一种独立的病理实体。它最初由桑德勒等人描述。加德纳和拉登提出将其作为一种独立的病理实体。这种疾病的特征是多个未萌出的牙齿,伴有大量钙化以及扩大的牙滤泡中残留的牙源性上皮。
