Abstract :
The calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is a rare
odontogenic cyst. Only 2% of all odontogenic cysts and
tumors are COC. COC associated with odontoma
(COCaO) reported in 24% of COCs. COCaO presents a
greater incidence in female, with a ratio of 2 to 1. The
highest incidence of COCaO occurs during the second
decade with a mean age of 16 years, most frequently
occurring in the maxilla (61.5%). Here, we describe a
classic case of COCaO of the maxillary incisor-canine
region in 17-year-old girl, and discuss the
clinicopathological features and immunohistochemical
finding of this tumor
