Odontogenic cysts, which showed cystic radiolucency in the jaw bone by radiographic examination and computed tomography, were enucleated by operation in 3 dogs. One dog had a odontogenic keratocyst in the incisive bone of the right maxilla and another 2 cases revealed dentigerous cysts in the mandible. These cyst walls were enucleated or transpired by semiconductor laser. Afterwards, osteogenesis was confirmed at the defective part of jaw bone by extirpation of the cyst in all cases, and no recurrence has been noted in any cases. Odontogenic cyst is a disease which should be treated by surgical extirpation or transpiration.  相似文献

BackgroundOdontogenic tumors present diverse clinical and histopathological behaviors that range from benign odontoma or hamartoma lesions to malignant tumors. In angelfish Pterophyllum scalare, findings of tumorous masses have been reported in the frontal region of the mouth, encompassing both the maxilla and mandible. Histologically, oral tumors have been characterized as angelfish lip fibroma or ameloblastoma.MethodsIn this report, we describe the occurrence of a compound odontoma/hamartoma in 60 angelfish from a population of 300, all of which were collected from a Mexican ornamental fish farm.ResultsAll fish presented a tumor-like mass on the rostral part of the mouth. Histological analyses revealed the tumor-like mass was covered by a hyperplastic stratified squamous epithelium, with fully differentiated denticles in various states of organization, immersed among normal dental tissues and showing a mild disorganized pattern. Radiograph analysis revealed radiopaque denticles in a radiolucent protuberance. Bacterial and viral isolation procedures and electron microscopy analysis revealed no presence of these microorganisms.Conclusion and clinical relevanceAlthough findings of odontogenic tumors in the mouth of angelfish are reported as sporadic, our study detected odontogenic mouth tumors in 60 angelfish, but the possible cause of alteration is not yet clarified. Further research is needed to clarify pathogenesis and to identify possible genetic abnormalities.  相似文献

A three-year-old Jack Russell terrier dog was presented with a large gingival mass of the right mandible extending from the fourth premolar to the first molar teeth. Radiographic examination of the expansile mass revealed moth-eaten, honeycomb-like lyses of the mandible and extended into the mandibular alveolar canal based on computed tomography. The histopathological diagnosis of the biopsy was odontogenic fibromyxoma. Mandibulectomy with resection of the associated soft tissues was performed. Surgical management was curative with no clinical signs of disease 2-years after treatment. These neoplasms are slow growing, locally destructive tumors of odontogenic origin that have been described in the jaw of only one dog. In this paper, the clinico-radiological and pathologic features, diagnostic modalities as well as the factors that might influence treatment outcome of odontogenic myxomas are discussed. These odontogenic tumors are currently excluded from the WHO classification of odontogenic tumors in domestic animals and inclusion in future classifications systems is proposed.  相似文献

Six young horses presented with a rapidly expanding maxillary mass with concurrent nasal discharge. All horses had a nonpainful firm unilateral facial swelling centred over the maxillary sinuses, accompanied by mucopurulent nasal discharge. Diagnostic imaging revealed an infiltrative nasomaxillary mass with cheek tooth involvement, diagnosed as odontogenic myxoma. The tooth involvement included missing, malformed and/or displaced dental precursors or unerupted teeth. Due to the rapid expansion and extent of the masses, and the poor prognosis reported for surgical excision, euthanasia was recommended and performed in all cases. Macroscopically, a soft oedematous tissue with a grey to green colour was seen in the regions of missing, malformed or displaced dental precursors or unerupted teeth. Histologically, this tissue consisted of spindle shaped cells surrounded by an abundant homogenous pale stroma, rich in acid mucopolysaccharides. Immunohistochemistry was positive for actin and the mesenchymal marker vimentin. The cheek tooth involvement identified in the described cases resembled what is previously reported in odontogenic myxoma in children and young adults. Even in man, maxillary odontogenic myxoma represents a therapeutic challenge due to the invasiveness of the lesions and radical surgical excision is recommended. Treatment is further complicated by sinonasal involvement. Surgery was not attempted in the cases presented here due to the extent of the lesions and the risk of recurrence. Clinicians should be aware of this rare condition when presented with young horses with sinonasal neoplasia.  相似文献

A novel case of a canine odontogenic parakeratinized cyst (COPC) that resulted in exophthalmos and palatine, maxillary, and zygomatic bone erosion in a 5‐year‐old Chihuahua dog is reported. Final diagnosis was aided by cross‐sectional imaging (magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography) and confirmed with histologic examination of the cyst wall.  相似文献

A spontaneous ameloblastic fibroma was found in a 9-week-old guinea pig. Histopathologically, neoplastic cells consisted of two components: an odontogenic epithelium and odontogenic mesenchyme. The odontogenic epithelium formed strands, nests and islands that were interspersed within the odontogenic mesenchyme. In the marginal region, odontoblasts and scant dysplastic eosinophilic material were seen between these two components. Immunohistochemically, the odontogenic epithelium was positive for cytokeratin AE1/AE3, and the odontogenic mesenchyme and odontoblast were positive for vimentin, in the same manner as in the normal tooth germ (control). We could not obtain conclusive data suggesting that the eosinophilic material was dental hard tissue because the eosinophilic material was not stained specifically by any methods. Based on these histological characteristics, the tumor in the present case was diagnosed as an ameloblastic fibroma. This is the first report of ameloblastic fibroma in guinea pigs.  相似文献

Curcumin is a constituent phenol compound of turmeric, and has been used as a dietary spice and Indian medicine. Curcumin has been reported to inhibit the formation of amyloid β fibrils and aggregation. In this study, the binding activity of curcumin to various types of canine amyloid was examined. Tissue samples used were lesions of AA, AL, amyloid of canine amyloid-producing odontogenic tumor (Aapot), and senile cardiovascular amyloid (ScA). Curcumin stained all types of amyloid. The binding of curcumin to AA, ScA, and AL was lost by the KMnO(4) treatment, but Aapot maintained the binding. These findings indicate that curcumin binds several types of amyloid, while the binding sites of amyloid molecules might be different from that of Congo red.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To review the literature on intracranial empyema and report two new cases in cats. METHODS: Literature review and case reports. RESULTS: Intracranial empyema has been rarely reported in small animals. In two novel cases in cats, the route of infection was postulated to be local extension from a retrobulbar abscess of odontogenic origin in one case and direct inoculation from a penetrating bite wound to the skull, confirmed at post-mortem examination, in the other. On magnetic resonance imaging of the first case, there was a contrast-enhancing large extra-axial fluid collection overlying the right cerebral hemisphere, consistent with subdural empyema. Infection was caused by an Actinomyces spp. This is the first report of successful treatment of intracranial empyema by craniotomy, drainage and antibiotics. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Intracranial empyema is a neurosurgical emergency. Favourable outcomes may be achieved with surgical decompression, antimicrobial therapy and intensive care.  相似文献

Fibromatous epulis is a rare tumour in horses which is analogous to the same condition in dogs and peripheral odontogenic fibromas in man. The nomenclature is varied throughout the veterinary literature, but these tumours are most correctly known as peripheral odontogenic fibromas. Although these lesions are benign, they have a high recurrence rate in other species, so wide local excision is important to give the best possible prognosis.  相似文献

Feline inductive odontogenic tumour (FIOT) is a rare and interesting odontogenic neoplasm in which the odontogenic epithelium has inductive potential to form aggregated foci of dental pulp-like mesenchymal cells. Two male cats aged 11 and 10 months presented with nasal swelling and a left maxillary mass. Histopathologically, the masses consisted of non-encapsulated invasive neoplasms exhibiting proliferation of epithelial and mesenchymal components with local infiltration into the maxillary bone in both cases. The epithelial component formed islands, anastomosing strands, and solid sheets of polygonal epithelial cells. Occasionally, these cells formed circular aggregates, resembling the cap stage of odontogenesis. Type IV collagen and laminin were constantly positive around the foci of epithelial cells, and Ki-67 positive indices were extremely low; therefore, these findings consistent with the benign clinical presentation of FIOT.  相似文献

A 12-year-old male shih tzu dog was diagnosed as having a calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour. One and a half years prior to presentation, a mass was noticed on the right mandible by the owners. Radiography revealed irregular, faintly radiopaque material within the tumour. A right hemimandibulectomy was performed, based on the clinical diagnosis of osteosarcoma. Histopathological evaluation of the mandibular mass showed that it was composed of a polyhedral odontogenic epithelial cell nest, fibrous stroma, homogeneous eosinophilic material and rounded calcifying material. The eosinophilic material was visualised by staining with Congo red, and observed under green birefringence by polarisation microscopy. Although the tumour had not recurred 12 months after surgery, the dog was euthanased because of aspiratic pharyngitis. The literature on the clinical behaviour of calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumours in dogs and cats is reviewed.  相似文献

A 10-year-old, male, Shih-Tzu dog presented with swelling of the right lower jaw caused by a mass arising from the right mandibular gingiva. Radiographic examination revealed bone lysis of the right wing of the mandible. Histopathologically, the growth was characterized by indistinctly lobulated nests, islands, and strands of proliferating odontogenic and squamous epithelial cells, intermingled in close association with large numbers of irregular extracellular deposits of amyloid and amorphous calcified substance. Immunohistochemically, both epithelial components stained strongly positive for cytokeratin (AE1/AE3); the squamous epithelial cells also reacted strongly with neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and S-100 protein, whereas the odontogenic epithelial cells displayed weak immunoreactivity to NSE and partial reactivity to S-100 protein. The amyloid deposits were AE1/AE3-negative. The growth was diagnosed as an amyloid-producing odontogenic tumor.  相似文献

Odontogenic tumors present as locally invasive, slow growing, firm swellings on the face. They are rare in all species and are characterized histologically by the degree of differentiation and dental tissue of origin. Radiographic appearance is not pathognomonic for these lesions. Computed tomographic (CT) examination allows exact determination of tumor extension and aggressiveness. The objectives of this retrospective, case series study were to describe the clinical presentation, CT characteristics, and outcome in horses with histologically confirmed odontogenic tumors, and to identify imaging features suggestive of individual types of tumors. Four ameloblastomas, two ameloblastic carcinomas, three ameloblastic fibromas, and two complex odontomas were included. All but one complex odontoma presented as a single mass. All tumors were associated with maxillary or mandibular bone expansion, alveolar and cortical bone lysis, and cortical bone thinning. The majority also had cortical bone thickening and periosteal proliferation. All tumors contained some degree of mineral attenuation, although only the complex odontomas contained enamel attenuation allowing differentiation from other types of odontogenic tumors in this study. Ameloblastomas were found to have variable CT characteristics likely due to the sub‐groups of ameloblastomas. Both ameloblastic carcinomas contained a mixture of mineralized and soft tissue attenuating material whereas ameloblastic fibromas were mainly composed of soft tissue attenuating material. Computed tomographic characteristics of odontogenic tumors generally indicate that they are expansile, aggressive tumors and can occur in a wide range of ages. Further investigation is needed to elucidate differences between each type of equine odontogenic tumor.  相似文献

Orthovoltage radiation was used to treat odontogenic tumours in three cats following incomplete surgical resection. Cats received a total radiation dose of 48-52 Gy over a period of 26-29 days. Acute toxicities were mild, consisting of hair loss within the radiation field in all cats, and mild mucositis in one cat. All cats had long-term (>35 months) control of their tumour, and two cats are still alive without recurrence of tumour 60 and 39 months, respectively, after completing treatment. Radiation therapy should be considered to be an adjuvant to incomplete surgery in cats with odontogenic neoplasms or epulides.  相似文献

A 15-year-old Cob mare was presented for investigation of a mandibular mass. Radiography identified an oval-shaped mass occupying the intramandibular space, with a heterogeneous osseous opacity throughout the left hemimandible. Histopathology combined with immunohistochemistry was consistent with a diagnosis of sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma, which to date has only been described, rarely, in human patients. The mass was removed using a mandibular-sparing surgical technique allowing preservation of the dental arcade. Follow-up 5 years after surgery confirmed no signs of regrowth. This case report describes the successful treatment of a previously unreported mandibular neoplasm in the horse.  相似文献

Odontogenic neoplasms are locally invasive oral tumors in dogs. The purpose of this retrospective study was to describe CT characteristics for varying histopathologic types of canine odontogenic neoplasms. A board‐certified veterinary radiologist who was unaware of histologic findings reviewed and scored imaging studies. A total of 29 dogs were included in the study. Twenty‐three of these dogs had concurrent dental radiographs. The most common CT characteristics for all tumor types were a direct association with or in the region of multiple teeth in 96.4% (27/28), contrast enhancement in 96.3% (26/27), alveolar bone lysis in 93.1% (27/29), and mass‐associated tooth displacement in 85.2% (23/27). Mass‐associated cyst‐like structures were identified in 53.6% (15/28) and were only present in tumors containing odontogenic epithelium. Canine acanthomatous ameloblastomas (n = 15) appeared as extra‐osseous (10/15) or intra‐osseous (5/15) masses. Intra‐osseous canine acanthomatous ameloblastomas were more likely to have mass‐associated cyst‐like structures and were subjectively more aggressive when compared with extra‐osseous canine acanthomatous ameloblastomas. Amyloid‐producing odontogenic tumors (n = 3) had subjectively uniform CT imaging characteristics and consisted of round soft tissue and mineral attenuating masses with multiple associated cyst‐like structures. Fibromatous epulides of periodontal ligament origin (n = 4) were contrast enhancing extra‐osseous masses that were rarely referred for CT examinations and 25% (1/4) were not visible with CT. Other odontogenic tumors were less represented or had more variable CT imaging characteristics. Mass‐associated tooth destruction was appreciated more often with dental radiographs and extra‐oral tumor extension was identified more often with CT.  相似文献

A 7-month-old, male, Burmese cat was presented with an oral mass that had rapidly regrown following excisional biopsy 3 weeks earlier. The tumour was identified by histological examination as a feline inductive odontogenic tumour. A unilateral segmental mandibulectomy was performed. Although dental malocclusion resulted from mandibular drift to the operated side, the cat displayed minimal dysphagia post-operatively and there was no evidence of tumour regrowth 8 months after surgery. Feline inductive odontogenic tumour is a rare dental tumour described exclusively in cats under 3-years-of-age. Although histopathologically benign, feline inductive odontogenic tumour grows by expansion and can infiltrate underlying bone to cause considerable local destruction. This article is intended to increase awareness of this unusual tumour which, with complete surgical excision, carries a good prognosis. It also emphasises the importance of obtaining a histological diagnosis from oral mass lesions to direct appropriate therapy and to provide an accurate prognosis.  相似文献

Incisional biopsies from the oral cavity of 2 adult cats were submitted for histological investigation. Cat No. 1 showed a solitary well-circumscribed neoplasm in the left mandible. Cat No. 2 demonstrated a diffusely infiltrating neoplasm in the left maxilla. Both tumors consisted of medium-size epithelial cells embedded in a fibrovascular stroma. The mitotic index was 0 to 1 mitosis per high-power field. The epithelial cells showed an irregular arrangement forming nests or streams in cat No. 1, whereas a palisading growth was noted in cat No. 2. Both tumors, especially that of cat No. 1, showed multifocal accumulations of amyloid as confirmed by Congo red staining and a distinct green birefringence under polarized light, which lacked cytokeratin immunoreactivity as well as and AL and AA amyloid immunoreactivity. In addition, the amyloid in cat No. 2 was positive for the odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein, formerly termed APin. In sum, both cats suffered from an amyloid-producing odontogenic tumor, but their tumors varied with respect to morphology and type of amyloid produced.  相似文献

Complex odontomas are rare odontogenic tumours in horses comprised of a combination of mesenchymal and epithelial tissues. Examination, radiographic and histopathological findings in this patient all represent the typical behaviour of a complex odontoma. Oral tumours in horses may have treatment limitations due to tumour size and location. Similar to treatment in other species, surgical enucleation was curative for this type of tumour.  相似文献
