title: Recurrent odontogenic myxoma of maxilla: a diagnostic and operative dilemma.
abstract: Odontogenic myxoma of maxilla is a very rare occurrence. It is a slow growing benign, locally malignant tumor notorious for recurrence. Hereby we present a case of recurrent odontogenic myxoma of the maxilla in a 32-year-old male managed surgically by partial maxillectomy. The diagnostic and operative dilemmas encountered while managing the case are discussed in detail.
