Introduction
Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is a benign lesion that Thoma
and Goldman first described, and then in 1958, it was described in
detail by Jens Pindborg 1. It’s classified by the
world health organization among the benign odontogenic epithelial
tumors2. Since this description, many cases have been
reported in the literature. The mean age of occurrence is the fourth
decade with no gender predilection and it has a mandibular preference1,3. A scarce non-calcifying variant was described.
The absence of calcifications can make a diagnostic challenge.
In this work, a rare clinical case was reported, and a literature review
of the different reported cases of the non-calcifying epithelial
odontogenic tumor was conducted.
