Abstract:
:Central granular cell odontogenic tumors are rare, with only 30 cases having been reported. The tumors usually occur in the mandibular molar area and are seen as localized painless swellings in patients older than 40 years. We report an additional case that occurred in the posterior mandible of an elderly black woman. All reported cases of this tumor are benign, and cure is effected by localized surgical excision. Ultrastructurally, the cells contain numerous lysosomes and phagocytic vacuoles. Immunohistochemically, the granular cells were positive for vimentin, CD68, muramidase, carcinogenic embryonic antigen, and bcl-2. These features support a mesenchymal origin with a possible histiocytic lineage for the granular cells. Awareness of the occurrence of this neoplasm is important to promote detection and differentiation from other intraoral granular cell lesions.
