Résumé

Les carcinomes muco-épidermoïdes centraux (CMC) sont des tumeurs rares, représentant environ 2 à 3% de tous les carcinomes muco-épidermoïdes. Ils touchent généralement la mandibule, et se manifestent comme des lésions radio-transparentes uni ou multiloculaires. Nous rapportons un cas de CMC chez une patiente de 52 ans du Moyen-Orient, qui a consulté pour des douleurs, une limitation du mouvement de la mâchoire et une sensation de picotement de la langue, liée à une lésion radio-transparente de l’angle de la mandibule. La lésion a tout d’abord été détectée mais non diagnostiquée dans un autre hôpital trois ans auparavant. Nous décrivons l’évolution de la lésion au cours des 3 dernières années et décrivons les aspects cliniques, radiographiques, histopathologiques et chirurgicales de ce cas.

Abstract
Central muco epidermoid carcinoma in a previously enucleated radiolucent lesion in the mandible. A case report

Central muco epidermoid carcinomas (CMC) are rare tumours, representing about 2 to 3% of all mucoepidermoid carcinomas. Usually affecting the mandible, they appear as uni- or multilocular radiolucent lesions. We report a case of CMC in a 52-year-old Middle Eastern woman who presented with pain, limitation of jaw movement and tingling sensation of the tongue, related to a radiolucent lesion in the angle of the mandible. The lesion was first detected but not diagnosed in another hospital three years earlier. We describe the progression of the lesion over the past three years and describe the clinical, radiographic, histopathological, and surgical aspects of the case.
