Ghost cell odontogenic carcinoma arising in calcifying odontogenic cyst
چکیده انگلیسی

A case of exceptionally rare odontogenic malignant tumor, called ghost cell odontogenic carcinoma, is described. The tumor was considered to be derived from calcifying odontogenic cyst, which had been resected 5 years before. In the present resected specimen, cellular atypia, mitotic activity, Ki-67 labeling index, and p53 positivity were all increased in comparison with the initially resected specimen. This is a valuable case in which malignant transformation from calcifying odontogenic cyst to ghost cell odontogenic carcinoma was proven by the histopathologic and immunohistochemical findings. Pathologists should be aware of this rare entity.
