Abstract
Introduction: The Odontogenic tumors are atypical, potentially aggressive, multifactorial benign neoplasms, odontogenic derived from embryonic tissue for this reason they are exclusive to the jaws. There are few studies of odontogenic benign tumors in children. Objetive: To describe the frequency of Benign Odontogenic Tumors (BOT) in less than 18 years in the Mercy Hospital Foundation (HOMI). Materials and Methods: A descriptive study was conducted cross-section. We reviewed in total 277 medical records of injuries to the head and neck and maxillofacial anatomical area, at the base of the HOMI ISIS data in patients 0-18 years of age, treated between 2006 to 2014. CIE-10 codes were used and classification of the World Health Organization. Results: Were reviewed 277 medical records with maxillofacial pathology; 36 medical records met the selection criteria for the BOT. The BOT had low relative frequency of 12.37% compared to pathology services reported by the treating head and neck. Most BOT who presented belong to socioeconomic stratum 1 (30.55%). Conclusions: This study shows that the BOT are low relative frequency of injuries in the maxillofacial region in the pediatric population, with a male to female ratio 2:1. Also most of the cases were found in the second decade of life.
