  • Title: Calcifying odontogenic cysts with intracellular amyloid-like material.
    Author: David R, Buchner A.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1976 Jun; 41(6):758-64. PubMed ID: 1063980.
    Abstract:
    Intracellular deposits of amyloid as defined by positive Congo red staining with green polarization birefringence and standardized toluidine blue staining with pink-red polarization birefringence were observed in the epithelial lining of three cases of calcifying odontogenic cysts. It is suggested that this material is not true amyloid but, rather, a dengenerative product of the epithelial cells as has been described in calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (Pindborg tumor).
