Popis: A wide variety of odontogenic cysts and tumors are seen in human jaw as a result of complex interaction between diverse cellular elements of embryogenesis. Calcifying ghost cell odontogenic tumor (CGCOT) and odontome are benign odontogenic tumors and constitutes 0.37–2.1% and 4–67% of all odontogenic tumors respectively. The most notable features of this pathologic entity are histopathological features, which include a cystic lining demonstrating characteristic “Ghost” epithelial cells with a propensity to calcify. Here we report a unique and probably the first case of concomitant occurrence of CGCOT with odontome and compound composite odontome at two different site of same jaw (mandible) with brief clinical, radiological and histological study along with a brief review of literature.
