Squamous odontogenic tumorlike proliferations in odontogenic cysts. 1979

J M Wright

Five cases of squamous odontogenic tumorlike proliferations occurring in the walls of odontogenic cysts are presented. These lesions showed no more aggressive potential than the cysts, if taken alone, in which they occurred. The lesions showed no tendency to develop into solid tumors and, on the basis of this limited series of cases, conservative surgery appears to be the treatment of choice.
