牙源性粘液瘤是一种发生于颌骨的良性肿瘤，具有局部侵袭性，无转移性。它来源于牙齿间充质或牙周韧带。尽管这些病变是良性的，但单独刮除后局部复发率很高，在某些情况下需要充分切除。本文报告一个上颌骨巨大牙源性黏液瘤的病例，着重讨论其影像学表现与鉴别诊断及手术治疗。
Odontogenic myxomas are considered to be a benign odontogenic tumor with locally aggressive behavior, non-metastasizing neoplasm of the jaw bones. It derives from the dental mesenchyme or periodontal ligament. Despite the benign nature of these lesions, there is a high rate of local recurrence after curettage alone and in certain cases requires adequate resection. This paper describes a case of a large odontogenic myxoma in the maxilla, emphasizing a discussion on the differential diagnosis related to radiological findings and the surgical treatment.
