| description | A Peripheral Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumour (PAOT) is
quite a rare entity which has been infrequently reported in the
literature. These uncommon clinical variants of an Adenomatoid
Odontogenic Tumour (AOT), typically manifest as a soft tissue
mass of the gingiva, which mimick a common epulis, but yet have
an identical histopathologic presentation as their intraosseous
counterpart. These lesions, though they are indolent in nature,
have a tendency to cause well defined deep bony pockets. Only
fourteen cases have been adequately documented so far. We
are reporting a case of a PAOT of the anterior maxillary gingiva,
with a periodontal bone defect in a 12 year old girl. The relevant
literature has been briefly reviewed, with an insight into the
probable origin of PAOTs with bony defects. |
