Solid-type primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma of the mandible: a case report with histopathological and imaging features

摘要

Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma (PIOSCC) is a rare malignant odontogenic tumor arising from odontogenic epithelial remnants within the jawbones. PIOSCC is histopathologically divided into 3 types: solid-type carcinoma, carcinoma derived from a keratocystic odontogenic tumor, and carcinoma derived from an odontogenic cyst. In this article, we report a case of solid-type PIOSCC involving reactive bone formation in the mandible in a 60-year-old female patient together with its histopathological and imaging findings.
