CD1a is Not Effective in Distinguishing Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic Tumor from Amyloid-Rich Central Odontogenic Fibroma
Confusion between CD1a positive non-calcifying calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumors (NCLC-CEOT) and CD1a positive amyloid-rich central odontogenic fibroma (AR-COdF) has become a discussion in the literature recently and reports vary about the frequency of CD1a positivity in both entities. This has led to the growing consensus that CD1a positive staining in non-calcifying amyloid positive lesions confirms the diagnosis of AR-COdF. Here we assess the validity of that notion.

DNA image cytometry as an adjuvant method applied on oral cytological specimens
This study aimed to evaluate cytology diagnosis accuracy using  adjuvant methods in clinical routine for oral cancer. Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 98 patients with clinically potentially malignant or malignant lesions of oral cavity. One oral lesion smear was taken from each patient using a cytobrush before biopsy and stored at PreservCyt® Thinprep. Samples were cytologically analyzed and at the same slide DNA ploidy measurement was performed. The diagnostic methods accuracy was then calculated.
