Radiopacity in syndrome keratocystic odontogenic tumour.
Dystrophic calcification or radiopacity in syndromatic keratocystic odontogenic tumours is not uncommon although there have not been many reports. A case of dystrophic calcification in the cavity of the cyst of a patient with a syndromatic keratocystic odontogenic tumour was detected on panoramic radiograph and CT. The component of the calculus was analysed by Fourier transform infrared spectrum.
