    Abstract Although acute immune-mediated lesions of the oral cavity (AIML) can have an onset over several months, they often demonstrate rapid onset and can be self-limited. Despite the self-limiting nature of some disorders, patients with AIML can have significant pain and multisystem involvement. It is vital for the oral health care provider to arrive at the proper diagnosis with distinction from overlapping conditions, as the oral manifestations may be harbingers of more serious systemic complications.

    Abstract Objective: An ectomesenchymal chondromyxoid tumor (ECT) is an uncommon soft tissue tumor with an enigmatic histogenesis and striking predilection for the tongue. We present 5 new cases and review the literature.
    Study design: We performed a retrospective search for ECTs within the University of Kentucky Oral Pathology Biopsy Service and the published literature.
    Results: Five new cases from the biopsy archives and 103 well-documented ECT cases from the literature were compiled and reviewed. Whereas 89.8% of ECT are found on the anterior/dorsal/lateral/unspecified tongue, 4.6% are on the posterior/base of tongue. Six extralingual cases are reported. The age ranges from 2.3 to 78 years with an average of 40. Most ECT react with GFAP (92.8%) and S-100 protein (91.3%). Whereas 21/23 cases demonstrated a RREB1-MKL2 fusion, EWSR1 gene mutations are identified in 4 cases.
    Conclusions: Most ECT are readily diagnosed on routine histopathology in combination with tumor site, immunohistochemical findings, and molecular findings; however, a subset share overlapping features with myoepithelioma of soft parts. As further molecular analysis is performed on this tumor, we may find that a subset of previously diagnosed ECT relate to or represent myoepithelioma or conversely fall under the spectrum of the pluripotent ECT.

    Abstract Odontogenic tumors are rare tumors of the jaws that arise from remnants of the tooth forming apparatus. Some odontogenic tumors demonstrate strong predilection for pediatric patients including the unicystic ameloblastoma, adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, ameloblastic fibroma, ameloblastic fibro-odontoma, odontoma, and primordial odontogenic tumor. In this review, we discuss the clinical, radiographic, histopathologic, and molecular characteristics of select odontogenic tumors that demonstrate pediatric predilection and review management.

    Abstract Odontogenic tumors represent a collection of entities ranging from hamartomas to destructive benign and malignant neoplasms. Occasionally, pathologists encounter gnathic lesions which clearly exhibit an odontogenic origin but do not fit within the confines of established diagnoses. Here, we describe two such odontogenic tumors, both affecting 3-year-old males. Each case presented as a destructive, radiolucent mandibular lesion composed of mesenchymal cells, some with unique multi-lobed nuclei, frequently arranged in a reticular pattern and supported by a myxoid stroma with focal laminations. Production of odontogenic hard tissues was also seen. Because of their unique microscopic features, both cases were investigated by next-generation sequencing and found to harbor the same STRN::ALK oncogene fusion. To our knowledge, these cases represent the first report of an odontogenic tumor with a STRN::ALK gene rearrangement. We propose the possibility that this neoplasm could be separate from other known odontogenic tumors. Both patients were treated with surgical resection and reconstruction. The prognosis of patients with this entity is currently uncertain but shall become more apparent over time as more cases are identified and followed.

    Abstract Background: Syphilis is a sexually-transmitted infectious disease caused by Treponema pallidum. Cases of primary and secondary syphilis are on the rise in the United States, with a 14.4% increase in new cases noted from 2017 to 2018 and an escalation of 71% between the years 2014 and 2018. Fulfilling its nickname of "the great imitator," oral manifestations of syphilis may mimic a variety of infectious, neoplastic, or immune-mediated processes, both clinically and histopathologically. This large spectrum of appearances can create a diagnostic challenge to the clinician and/or pathologist, leading to delay in diagnosis or misdiagnosis.
    Methods: A database of oral syphilis cases was created from archives at the University of Kentucky, University of Pittsburgh, LIJMC, Columbia University MC, and University of Tennessee. The age, sex, race, location, duration, and clinical description were recorded. Cases without positive reaction upon immunohistochemistry or serologic tests were excluded.
    Results: We identified 19 new cases of oral syphilis (17 males, one female, and one case unknown sex) and described the clinical and histopathological features of this re-emerging and potentially fatal disease. All cases demonstrated dense lymphoplasmacytic inflammation, often with inflammatory exocytosis or ulceration at the surface, and perivascular inflammation.
    Conclusions: Early recognition of the histopathologic and clinical manifestations of oral syphilis is imperative for prompt diagnosis, improved patient outcomes, and disease prevention.

    Abstract Background: Glomus tumors are benign neoplasms that most commonly present in the subungual region. Their occurrence in the oral cavity is exceedingly rare. Here, we present 2 cases from the oral cavity, detail their clinical and histopathologic features, and review the literature for solitary cases involving the oral regions.
    Study design: The English language literature was queried for cases of benign glomus tumors in/around the oral cavity. Additional citations were cross-referenced from the identified sources.
    Results: Thirty-one cases of solitary glomus tumor in the oral and paraoral regions have been described, including the present cases. Patient age ranged from 10 to 85 years, with an average age of 47 years. In 12 of the 31 cases, the tumors occurred in the lips, 5 in the palate, 4 in the tongue, 4 in the buccal mucosa, 3 in the gingiva, and 1 each in the parotid, pterygoid fossa, and oropharynx. Only 18 of these cases had accompanying immunohistochemical stains, with 14 expressing positivity for muscle cell markers.
    Conclusions: Although glomus tumors have distinct histopathologic features, diagnostic confusion may exist with regard to extradigital locations. Detailed documentation and discussion of the clinical and histopathologic features of rare tumors like these are vital to understanding them.

    Abstract Background: Radiculomegaly, or root gigantism, is a rare dental abnormality with important clinical implications. It is highly specific for oculo-facio-cardio-dental (OFCD) syndrome, which places dentists at the forefront of diagnosis of this syndrome. Only 1 case of nonsyndromic radiculomegaly has been reported in the literature since the description of OFCD syndrome in 1996. We present the second confirmed, nonsyndromic/nonfamilial case and review the literature for dental treatments in patients with this dental finding.
    Study design: A review of the English language literature was performed in PubMed for patients with radiculomegaly or OFCD syndrome. Teeth affected by radiculomegaly, gender, orodental findings, presence of OFCD syndrome, and dental treatment methods were recorded.
    Results: Sixty-seven cases of radiculomegaly and 92 cases of OFCD syndrome were found in the literature. Only 1 confirmed case of nonsyndromic/nonfamilial radiculomegaly had been reported previously. Ten reports described dental treatment or treatment plan details, and even fewer included specific methods.
    Conclusions: Because dental anomalies, especially radiculomegaly, are a primary feature of OFCD syndrome, dentists should be aware of the clinical and radiographic features. Radiculomegaly poses a distinct challenge to dentists, and reports of dental therapy provided to these patients are sparse. Early diagnosis of the syndrome may prevent dental challenges and improve prognosis.
