An Unusual Case of Hybrid Odontogenic Tumor in Type 1 Myotonic Dystrophy Patient

Myotonic dystrophy, also referred myotonic muscular dystrophy, is an autosomal dominant, slowly progressive, multisystem disease characterized by skeletal muscle weakness, wasting, and myotonia. A hybrid tumor of odontogenic apparatus is a lesion showing combined histopathological characteristics of...

Description
Summary:Myotonic dystrophy, also referred myotonic muscular dystrophy, is an autosomal dominant, slowly progressive, multisystem disease characterized by skeletal muscle weakness, wasting, and myotonia. A hybrid tumor of odontogenic apparatus is a lesion showing combined histopathological characteristics of two or more previously recognized odontogenic tumors and/or cysts of different categories. We, therefore, report a case of hybrid tumor (adenomatoid odontogenic tumor associated with calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor) in a myotonic dystrophic patient.
