Abstract
This study reports an unusual case of a peripheral adenomatoid odontogenic tumor arising in a post-marsupialization site and its relationship to a dentigerous cyst. Boy, 14, was referred to treat swelling in the left anterior maxilla that was associated with impaction of teeth #22 and #23. Treatment planning included marsupialization and posterior orthodontic traction of the impacted teeth. The marsupialization reduced significantly the swelling after 4 months, but in the access site of the marsupialization a 3-cm wide sessile nodule developed at the vestibular gingiva.
