A diagnostic dilemma of sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma: case report
2022, Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Medicine, and PathologyCitation Excerpt :The clinical and radiographic features of COF have been summarized by some researchers [5]; however, the condition may have a variable presentation. Moreover, only 14 case reports of SOC are documented in the literature [6–17]. There is no known decisive factor to distinguish SOC from COF, except in the presence of a clearly invasive phenotype [1].
Sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma — review of all published cases: is it a justifiable addition as a malignancy?
2022, Brazilian Journal of OtorhinolaryngologyCitation Excerpt :This may be related to the low-grade characteristics of epithelial and stromal components, including their low mitotic activity.7 Saxena et al.25 also postulated that the dense stroma surrounding the epithelial component of the tumor may have a role in preventing metastasis. The role of adjuvant treatment cannot be justified at the moment.
A case of sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma
2021, Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Medicine, and PathologyCitation Excerpt :Nevertheless, surgical excision with negative margins is the preferred treatment plan for SOC at this time, inasmuch as one recurrent case of SOC showed malignant transformation suggestive of squamous cell carcinoma [17]. The efficacy or usefulness of elective neck dissection or radiation therapy has not been established [3–17]. In our patient, we could not rule out the possibility of poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma; therefore, we performed extensive resection of the tumor and bilateral elective neck dissection.

2016, Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral RadiologyCitation Excerpt :These tumors are rare and are commonly reported as other entities. There is continuing debate about their true origins, due to similar morphologic patterns being present within other tumors.15,16 Although SOC is a rare tumor, with this additional case there are now 9 likely cases and possibly up to 11 cases described in the literature (Table I).
