“…Intense Bcl-2 staining correlates with tumour aggressiveness whereas poor Bcl-2 staining indicates a lack of aggressiveness. 20 As an antiapoptotic protein, Bcl-2 helps to establish the persistence of the proliferative tumour cells. 4 In our case, there was diffuse Bcl-2 staining of the stromal cells and a low proliferative index of 2-4% as indicated by Ki-67.…”

Odontogenic myxoma is a rare, locally aggressive benign tumour of odontogenic ectomesenchyme origin. The tumour may cause signifi cant facial disfi gurement and has a negative psychological impact on a child. Odontogenic myxoma has predilection for females in the second and third decades of life. The mandibular molar region is the most frequently affected site. It is imperative to detect the tumour early to avoid radical surgery and reduce local recurrences. This case study reports a case of a 9-year-old female patient who presented with an expansile tumour that affected the entire left maxilla, perforated into the left maxillary sinus and completely occluded the sinus.

“…Then later, the term was replaced by fibromyxoma, given by Dietrich et al [ 3 ]. In 2005, WHO categorized odontogenic myxomas as ectomesenchymal tumors, either including or excluding the odontogenic epithelium [ 4 ]. WHO did, however, classify odontogenic myxoma as central and peripheral forms of mesenchymal odontogenic tumors later in 2017.…”

Odontogenic fibromyxoma typically presents as painless swelling in the jaw, and clinically, it grows slowly, becoming benign and asymptomatic. It causes the cortical plates to expand gradually, which leads to mobility and drifting of the teeth. Root resorption is also common. The tumor is locally aggressive in nature. It is also known to have a high recurrence rate. We present the case of a 30-year-old female patient who was diagnosed and treated for odontogenic fibromyxoma of the maxilla conservatively with enucleation. The radiograph showed a multilocular lesion, which can be confused with ameloblastoma, aneurysmal bone cyst, or odontogenic keratocyst. Hence, with proper clinical, radiographic, and histopathological examination, a correct diagnosis can be made and adequate treatment can be planned.

El mixoma odontogénico es una neoplasia benigna, localmente agresiva, con una baja prevalencia (frecuencia del 2% al 5% de los tumores odontogénicos) en los maxilares. Este tumor a menudo se presenta como una lesión expansiva asintomática sin cambios nerviosos sensoriales. El objetivo del presente trabajo es detallar el caso de un paciente masculino de 42 años quien acude al servicio de Cirugía Bucal y Maxilofacial del Hospital Nacional Hipólito Unanue por presentar una tumoración de crecimiento lento en maxilar superior, que fue aumentando de tamaño con el tiempo y desplazando órganos dentarios, y que se extiende al paladar duro y parte de paladar blando, el diagnóstico anatomopatológico fue de mixoma odontogénico y recibió un tratamiento radical (hemimaxilectomia) por la naturaleza agresiva del tumor. En este trabajo discutimos la presentación del mixoma odontogénico en el maxilar superior, los enfoques de tratamiento; detallando la importancia de plantear alternativas de tratamiento que permitan la reconstrucción inmediata generando la menor morbilidad posible.
