Metastatic bronchial carcinoid tumor of the soft palate: report of a case.

The metastasis of tumors to the soft palate is a rather rare occurrence, with few cases documented in literature. Even more extraordinary is the metastasis of a carcinoid tumor to the palate. Problems in evaluation of carcinoid tumors arise from histologic and cytologic characteristics that are not accurate indices of malignancy, at times making recognition and treatment difficult.

Dentin dysplasia type I. Clinical, morphologic, and genetic studies of a case.

This report documents a case of dentin dysplasia Type I in a 17-year-old boy and two members of his family. The clinical, radiographic, histologic, and ultrastructural findings indicate that this condition is distinct from other heritable defects of dentin. The entity is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait and is characterized by teeth which have a normal color and exhibit pulpal obliteration, short roots, periapical radiolucencies, and spontaneous exfoliation. Our ultrastructural findings in agreement with those reported by Sauk and associates.

The central odontogenic fibroma. Clinical and morphologic studies.

The clinical, pathologic, and ultrastructural features and pertinent case history of an 11-year-old boy with a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm, the central odontogenic fibroma, are presented. A review of the literature reveals seven other lesions with clinical and pathologic findings similar to those of this case. This study supports the concept that the central odontogenic fibroma is a distinct odontogenic neoplasm of bone which occurs most commonly in the mandible as a multilocular, radiolucent, and slowly growing expansile lesion with no tendency to recur after surgical enucleation. The ultrastructural findings indicate that the central odontogenic fibroma and the odontogenic myxoma share many common morphologic features and have an apparently similar histogenesis.

Primary malignant hemangioendothelioma of the gingiva. Report of a case and review of the literature.

Primary malignant tumors of vascular origin are exceedingly rare in the oral cavity. Consequently, knowledge of their clinical and pathologic features is scanty. The varied array of terms applied to malignant vascular tumors has only further confused the issue. This article presents a review of twenty examples of oral malignant vascular tumors, with a report of a single personally studied case. Specifically, this case presented as a soft-tissue gingival lesion which subsequently invaded bone and represents a malignant hemangioendothelioma.
