Central adenoid cystic carcinoma of the mandible manifesting as an endodontic lesion

Abstract: Adenoid cystic carcinoma affecting the mandible may mimic a periapical lesion. Proper diagnosis of such a lesion is dependent on thorough clinical, radiographic and microscopic examinations. Such a case highlights the benefits of biopsy and histological examination of collected tissues. Diagnosis of lesions in the mandible should include salivary gland tumours.
