A squamous odontogenic tumor (SOT) is an epithelial originated benign tumor. It has been rarely reported and most was intramural type. We observed a case of SOT in the mandible. It was associated with the odontogenic cyst. It was shown positive to pancytokeratin and p53. Considering that the case was free from recurrence for 5 years after surgery, p53 positive did not seem to be related to the prognosis of the disease.

A squamous odontogenic tumor (SOT) is rare disease and it is believed to originate from epithelial rests of Malassez of the periodontal membrane. Neither sex nor site predilection in either jaw has been established. Some lesion can be shown in juxtaposition in tooth roots. Although most lesions remain smaller than 2 cm, our cases involved a half of left mandibular ramus. The exact pathogenesis is still unknown. We report a case of SOT including the results of immunohistochemical study of pancytokeratin and p53.
