牙源性粘液瘤是一种罕见的局部侵袭性良性肿瘤（占所有牙源性肿瘤的3-6%），仅见于颌骨。OM通常发生在第二和第三个十年，下颌骨比上颌骨更常见。病变通常在没有症状的情况下生长，并表现为无痛性肿胀。影像学特征是可变的，因此诊断不容易。本文报告1例发生于上颌骨的罕见OM，作者为一名37岁女性，本文就其发病机制、临床、影像学、组织病理学、超微结构及免疫组化特点作一简要综述。
Odontogenic myxoma (OM) is a rare and locally invasive benign neoplasm (comprising of 3-6% of all odontogenic tumors) found exclusively in the jaws. OM commonly occurs in the second and third decades, and the mandible is involved more commonly than the maxilla. The lesion often grows without symptoms and presents as a painless swelling. The radiographic features are variable, and the diagnosis is therefore not easy. This article presents a rare case of OM occurring in the maxilla of a 37-year-old female patient with a brief review of the pathogenesis, clinical, radiological, histopathological, ultrastructural and immunohistochemical characteristics of OM.
