Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma arising in an odontogenic cyst - a clinicopathologic analysis of 116 reported cases

Abstract

PIOSCC has a predilection for men (M/F ratio of 2.22:1), affects mainly adults in their 6-8th decades, occurs most frequently (79%) in the mandible, and is associated mainly with a residual/radicular cyst. Histologically, the well-to-moderately differentiated SCC was the most common. Surgery alone or combined therapy of surgery and radiation was the most common approach. The prognosis is 62% surviving 2 years and 38% 5 years.
