Glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is a rare developmental odontogenic cyst from the cell rests of Serres. GOC is locally aggressive with a tendency toward recurrence. The most common site of occurrence is the anterior mandible with an asymptomatic presentation. Radiographically, it presents as unilocular or multilocular radiolucency. It bears histopathological resemblance to low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma. We report two cases of GOC occurring in a 16-year-old and a 33-year-old male patient with a review of the clinical presentation, histopathological features, and diagnostic aspects of GOC reported so far in literature.
腺牙源性囊肿(GOC)是一种罕见的来源于 Serres 细胞残余的牙源性发育性囊肿。GOC 具有局部侵袭性和复发倾向。最常见的发病部位是下颌前牙,表现为无症状。放射学上,它表现为单房或多房透光性。其组织病理学表现类似于低度黏液表皮样癌。我们报告了两例发生在 16 岁和 33 岁男性患者的 GOC 病例,并回顾了迄今为止文献中报道的 GOC 的临床表现、组织病理学特征和诊断要点。
