  • Title: Maxillary calcifying epithelial odontogenic (Pindborg) tumor presenting with abnormal eye signs: case report and literature review.
    Author: Bridle C, Visram K, Piper K, Ali N.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod; 2006 Oct; 102(4):e12-5. PubMed ID: 16997086.
    Abstract:
    Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumors (CEOT) are uncommon, accounting for less than 1% of all odontogenic tumors. The CEOT, since its description by Pindborg in 1958 as a separate pathologic entity, is commonly known as the Pindborg tumor. We present an unusual case of such a tumor in the maxilla presenting with abnormal eye signs. The case demonstrates the use of a Le Fort I down-fracture osteotomy approach to maxillary tumors.
