We present a rare finding of adenomatoid odontogenic tumour (AOT) in a 12-year-old boy who was referred to the Department of Paediatric Dentistry at the Eastman Dental Hospital for the extraction of a carious maxillary permanent molar. First presentation revealed that the maxillary right permanent lateral incisor and canine were unerupted. Radiological examination revealed a circumscribed radiolucent area associated with the distal aspect of the maxillary right permanent lateral incisor. The patient was admitted to our Day Care Unit where the carious maxillary molar was extracted and the radiolucent area associated with the maxillary right permanent incisor was explored. Pathological examination confirmed the lesion as adenomatoid odontogenic tumour. We present a brief review of the literature and consider how differential diagnosis of this tumour from more common odontogenic lesions can be established.
我们报告了一例罕见的腺样牙源性肿瘤（AOT），患者为一名12岁男孩，因上颌一颗龋坏的恒磨牙被转诊至伊斯特曼牙科医院儿童牙科科室。初次就诊时发现上颌右侧恒侧切牙和尖牙未萌出。影像学检查显示在上颌右侧恒侧切牙远中处有一个边界清晰的透射区。患者被收入我们的日间护理病房，在此拔除了龋坏的上颌磨牙，并对上颌右侧恒切牙相关的透射区进行了探查。病理检查证实该病变为腺样牙源性肿瘤。我们对相关文献进行了简要综述，并探讨了如何将该肿瘤与更常见的牙源性病变进行鉴别诊断。
