Objective: To analyze the three-dimensional radiographic characteristics of calcifying odontogenic cyst and calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor using spiral computed tomography (CT) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Clinical records, histopathological reports, and CBCT or non-enhanced spiral CT images of 19 consecutive patients with calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) and 16 consecutive patients with calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) were retrospectively acquired, and radiographic features, including location, size, expansion, internal structure and calcification, were analyzed. Results: Among the 19 COC cases (12 males and 7 females, with an average age of 27 years), 89.5% (17/19) of the lesions originated from the anterior and premolar areas, 100.0% of them exhibited cortex expansion, and 78.9% had discontinued cortex. Among the 16 CEOT cases (3 males and 13 females, with an average age of 36 years), 81.3% (13/16) of the lesions were in the premolar and molar areas, 56.3% of them exhibited cortex expansion, and 96.8% had discontinued cortex. According to the distribution of internal calcifications, these lesions were divided into: Ⅰ (non-calcification type): absence of calcification; Ⅱ (eccentric marginal type): multiple calcifications scattered along one side of the lesion; Ⅲ (diffused type): numerous calcifications diffusely distributed into the lesion; Ⅳ (plaque type): with a ≥ 5 mm calcified patch; Ⅴ (peri-coronal type): multiple calcifications clustered around impacted teeth. Calcifications were present in 73.7% of COC lesions, including 9 type Ⅱ, 3 type Ⅲ and 2 type Ⅳ lesions, and 42.8% of CEOT lesions had calcification images, including 2 type Ⅲ and 5 type Ⅴ lesions. Six COC lesions had odontoma-like images. Moreover, 8 of 9 type Ⅰ CEOTs were histologically Langerhans cell-rich subtype, which had a smaller size (with an average mesiodistal diameter of 17.8 mm) and were not associated with impacted teeth. Conclusion: COC lesions tended to originate from the anterior part of the jaw and exhibit cortex expansion, and were sometimes associated with odontoma. CEOT commonly occurred in the posterior jaw and had discontinued cortex. Two lesions had significantly different calcification map. Over 70% of COC lesions had calcification images, which were mostly scattered along one side of the cysts, far from the impacted teeth. Approximately 60% of CEOT lesions exhibited smaller size and non-calcification, and the remaining CEOT cases often had calcification images clustered around the impacted teeth.
