A calcifying odontogenic cyst associated with a complex odontoma which appeared in the mandible of a 21-year-old woman is reported.
Radiographically, this lesion showed a single radiolucent area with an odontoma-like radiopaque mass. Histopathologic examination revealed the presence of ghost cells, calcified tissues and structures characteristic of a complex odontoma in the lumen of the cyst. After surgical removal of the cyst, the patient has remained free of symptoms.
