This report presents an extremely rare case of -rearranged primary central mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) of the mandible that was discovered as an incidental finding. Our review of the literature identified 36 cases of rearranged intraosseous lesions of the jaw (30 central MECs, 5 odontogenic cysts with mucous prosoplasia, and 1 glandular odontogenic cyst). Given the therapeutic indications for a diagnosis of MEC (a malignant neoplasm), rearrangement should be confirmed in suspected cases of central MEC.
本报告介绍了一例极为罕见的下颌骨原发性中心性黏液表皮样癌(MEC)重排病例,该病例为偶然发现。我们对文献的回顾发现了36例颌骨骨内病变重排病例(30例中心性MEC、5例伴有黏液化生的牙源性囊肿和1例腺性牙源性囊肿)。鉴于MEC(一种恶性肿瘤)诊断的治疗指征,在疑似中心性MEC病例中应确认重排情况。
