Abstract
Clear cell variants of odontogenic tumors are rare. A case of clear ce ll calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor of the mandible in a 38-yea r-old Caucasian male is described. This case is compared to 8 previous ly reported cases. The origin of clear cells in odontogenic tumors is still unknown, En bloc resection of the tumor is recommended.
