[A case of cuniculate epithelioma of the maxilla].
A case of cuniculate epithelioma of the maxilla is presented. The patient was treated in the Outpatient Clinic and Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Province Hospital in Piła. In accordance with the previously published descriptions of such lesions in the Polish and foreign literature the author found considerable difficulties in clinical and histological diagnosis, and described the characteristic features of the tumour. The results of histological examinations of two preparations were not unequivocal. The most characteristic feature of the tumour was its whitish colour, friability, spongy consistency and caseous masses expelled by pressure from numerous fistulae of the tumour.
