“…These results are consistent with those of previous reports. 7 , 13 , 22 In addition, male dominance for OTs was found to be statistically significant, and this is consistent with some reports of other populations. 13 , 20 Finally, the posterior mandible was identified as the most frequently affected anatomical site, consistent with the results of other studies.…”

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVESOdontogenic tumors (OTs) represent an uncommon group of lesions that arise from the tooth-forming apparatus. They pose a significant diagnostic and management challenge. There is a lack of data among the Saudi population. The aim of the study was to establish the relative frequency of the various histological types of OTs.DESIGN AND SETTINGSA retrospective study of 188 cases of OTs using the histopathology archives of the College of Dentistry, King Saud University.METHODSThe histopathology archives of the College of Dentistry, King Saud University were reviewed from January 1984 to December 2010 for OTs. The age and gender of the patients, tumor site, and histopathologic typing were analyzed.RESULTSA total of 188 (4.3%) patients met the criteria for being classified as an OT. Odontogenic keratocystic tumor (36.7%) was the most commonly diagnosed, followed by ameloblastoma (25.0%), odontoma (14.9%), and odontogenic myxoma (6.4%). Two cases of malignant OTs (1.1%) are found. The male-to-female ratio was 1.4:1. The most frequently affected area was the posterior mandible (48.9%), followed by the anterior maxilla (22.9%).CONCLUSIONThis is a relatively large series of OTs revealing aspects of similarities and differences with those of previous studies of populations in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. The findings of the present study may be useful as a guide for clinicians who need to make clinical judgments prior to biopsy about the most probable diagnosis.

“…In the present study, the frequency of ameloblastoma was higher in women, and the participants' mean age was 37.71 years. Results of research by Abdennour et al [37] indicated that the incidence of ameloblastoma is higher in women than men in Asia and Africa, which is in agreement with our findings..…”

Objective: To perform the epidemiological and clinicopathological analyses of odontogenic tumors in Kerman for 20 years. Material and Methods: The present study investigated collected records from pathology departments of the Faculty of Dentistry, Bahonar, and Shafa teaching-medical hospitals for 20 years. Data on odontogenic tumors was recorded based on age, sex, and tumor location in the information forms. The statistical t-test and the Kappa coefficient computer codes were utilized for data analysis. Results: 38 samples of odontogenic tumors were considered in the present study. The mean age of participants was 31.7± 10.3 years. The frequency of tumors was higher in women (63.2%) and in the lower jaw) 78.9%). Among various tumors, ameloblastoma (63.1%) and odontoma (18.4%) were the most common tumors, respectively. The correlation between clinical and histopathologic diagnoses was 71.8% using the kappa coefficient. Conclusion: Ameloblastoma is the most common odontogenic tumor. The incidence of lesions was higher in the mandible, and odontogenic tumors were higher in women. Since the diagnosis of odontogenic tumors is based on radiographic and histologic appearances, clinical physicians and pathologists should collaborate for the definitive diagnosis of the disease.

“…Benign maxillary tumors represent a rare entity [1][2][3][4][5], the requirement in our series was 7 cases/year, result identical to that of KOVI [5] and similar to that of JANAH [1] and KOVI contrary to the series of RAKOTOARISOA where the incidence was 14 cases/yearthe mean age of our patients was 3O years of age result which is similar to other studies consistent with the literature data since the incidence of these tumors remains important during the 2nd and 3rd decades [6][7][8][9][10] in our series we did not find a predominance of sex; same result found in the series of E.kpemsi [7], contrary to the studies of RAKOTOARISOA [6], AYANECHI [10] and AVELAR [12] tumor being the preponderant functional sign in all series the clinical examination has objected a tumor size that exceeds 4cm in 67% of cases, a result similar to that of heymans [18] and agbokponto [13].…”
