Abstract: Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a benign, slow growing, but locally invasive neoplasm, also known as Pindborg tumor. The incidence of CEOT accounts for 0.4%-3% of all odontogenic tumors. It is known to have a common intraosseous variant (94%) and a very rare extraosseous variant (6%) according to the literature report. In this paper, we report an extraosseous variant of CEOT in our department.

Key words: calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, extraosseous calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, Pindborg tumor
