Risk factors and prognosis for the primary intraosseous carcinoma of the jaw

Primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC) is a rare but aggressive type of odontogenic tumour arising within the jawbone. Diagnosis criteria and treatment strategy remain difficult and controversial. The present study aimed to clarify the clinicopathological features and determine prognostic factors in management of PIOC. A retrospective study of 30 patients with PIOC, treated at the Hospital of Stomatology of Sun Yat-sen University between 2009 and 2017, was conducted. Clinical, histopathological and treatment modality data were collected.
