Non-invasive Mucormycosis Associated with Ameloblastoma of the Mandible in Liver Transplant Patients
Mucormycosis is an aggressive opportunistic fungal infection that can be found in the oral cavity. The fungus usually affects the immunocompromised patients and tends to invade and block blood vessels, resulting in significant tissue necrosis and invasive mucormycosis. However, a non-invasive form of mucormycosis is mostly asymptomatic and found accidentally in the immunocompetent normal hosts, manifested by localized overgrowth of the fungus. Here, we report a rare case of asymptomatic non-invasive mucormycosis of the mandible that was incidentally diagnosed in wide resection specimen of liver transplant patient who had previously underwent surgery of excision and simultaneous alloplastic bone graft due to mandibular ameloblastoma. Histopathological examination of the specimen revealed that there was neither vasculitis nor tissue necrosis, but numerous fungal hyphae were located only within the alloplastic graft materials in decalcified tissue sections. Awareness of the possibility of life-threatening mucormycosis in immunocompromised patients should be emphasized because it can be inactive or reactivated depending on the immune state of patients.

Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), also known as keratocystic odontogenic tumor, is a distinct clinicopathologic lesion that can be clearly identified by histologic examination. Clinically, OKC is characterized by a high recurrence rate. This report describes a rare case of OKC with mural calcification in the maxilla of a 47-year-old male patient. Orthopantomography and Cone Beam Computed Tomography showed full opacification with calcification and lateral wall resorption in the left maxillary sinus, destroying the sinus floor. Hard tissue deposits have rarely been reported in the connective tissue walls of OKC. The importance of calcified material formation to the biological behavior of OKCs is unclear. Although its prognostic value has not been studied, the presence of calcification materials does not appear to increase the risk of recurrence. Study of a number of samples would be needed to determine the nature of the correlation between the presence of calcified materials and recurrence.

Central odontogenic fibroma(COF) is a very rare benign tumor that accounts for 0.1-1.5% of all odontogenic tumors. Most COF develop in the molar-premolar region in the mandible and anterior to the first molar in the maxilla. Radiographically, the lesions appear as a unilocular or multilocular radiolucent image. Some maxillary lesions have cleft like depression in the palatal mucosa are found. This report presents a COF with external root resorption and palatal soft tissue depression on CBCT images. A 27-year-old man referred for evaluation of unilocular radiolucent lesion with external root resorption in the right anterior maxillary region. On clinical examination, the right anterior maxillary teeth responded positive to the cold stimulus and its response to the vitality test remained within the normal range. On radiographic examination, osteolytic lesion with external root resorption and palatal mucosa depression as a radiolucent shadow. After excisional biopsy, the lesion was diagnosed as COF in histopathologic examination. There was no recurrence at a follow-up 10 months.
