Abstract
Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon tumor of odontogenic origin, constituting only 3% of all odontogenic tumors. Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors are frequently asymptomatic and are discovered during the course of a routine radiographic examination. The AOT is an uncommon tumor of odontogenic origin composed of odontogenic epithelium and a plethora of histoarchitectural patterns. It is a very uncommon cause of jaw swelling. We present a case of intraosseus follicular AOT involving maxillary sinus in an 8-year-old female child with the impacted tooth in the orbital floor.
