Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumour– A case report

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumour (AOT) is a benign, non-invasive odontogenic tumour with slow and sustained growth. It is relatively rare and unusual, and mainly affects females in their second decade of life, exhibiting predilection for the anterior region of the maxilla. The lesion is usually associated with the crown of an enclosed tooth, most commonly the maxillary canine. In this paper, we present a case of a 19-year-old female having the classical clinical, radiological and histopathological features, leading to the diagnosis of AOT.
