A case of glandular odontogenic cyst associated with ameloblastoma: correlation of diagnostic imaging with histopathological features

Dentomaxillofac Radiol. 2000 Jul;29(4):249-53. doi: 10.1038/sj/dmfr/4600531.

Abstract

The glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is a rare odontogenic cyst. There has only been one reported case of the simultaneous presence of GOC and ameloblastoma. The radiographic features of GOC are well established but the MR findings have not been described. We report a case of GOC associated with ameloblastoma with special reference to the correlation of the diagnostic imaging with the histopathological features.
