“…Microscopic examination of serial specimen sections is usually required to rule out the presence of odontogenic cyst lining epithelium or any other odontogenic tumor (14). Radical surgery with adequate resection appears to be the most important factor in the treatment of this tumor (4,7). In the absence of initial biopsy, the radiolucent lesion may simulate an odontogenic cyst and this situation could lead the surgeon to enucleate the lesion without adequate free margins.…”

“…The etiology is still not clear; probably PIOC derives from the remnants of odontogenic epithelium, epithelial rests of Malassez, or the remnants of the dental lamina (3). Several cases of malignant transformation of odontogenic cysts or odontogenic tumors have appeared in the literature, while primary intraosseous carcinoma arising de novo has been infrequently reported (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). We present a case of de novo PIOC affecting the mandible.…”

“…They recorded a significantly poorer prognosis in the case of large lesions, in coincidence with our own observations. A histopathological study was made of all the OCs, with a view to securing a firm diagnosis, since the literature describes cases with clinical and radiological characteristics suggestive of benignity, which posteriorly proved to be malignant (1,5,16,17). In lesions over 25-30 mm in size, panoramic radiographies are unable to produce sufficient information to plan an adequate surgical treatment (5,(7)(8)(9).…”

“…Correct histological diagnosis following resection of the entire lesion can exceptionally identify carcinomatous cells within a well differentiated epithelium. This in turn radically changes the treatment recommendations, due to the possible presence of a primary intrabony carcinoma (17).…”

“…However, OKC can occur anywhere within the jaws and can resemble other lesions [1,9]. Malignant changes in the lining of OKCs have been reported but it has been suggested that it occurs more frequently in lesions with keratinizing linings [10][11][12].…”
