Abstract
Glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC), an unusual multilocular cystic lesion of jaws exhibiting the features of both botryoid odontogenic cyst and mucoepidermoid tumor has been reported recently as a new entity with uncertain histogenesis. The World Health Organization named GOC as an independent pathologic entity and classified it as a developmental odontogenic epithelial cyst. We report an additional case, describe its clinicopathologic features, and discuss the similarity to the central mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
