Peripheral odontogenic myxoma (POM), a rare and extra-osseous variant of odontogenic myxoma (OM), is classified as a relatively rare benign odontogenic tumour, yet presenting with locally aggressive behaviour and a wide range of variable clinical presentations. The objective of this case report is to present a patient who reported with the complaint of pus discharge in upper front region of the jaw, in the past one month. No associated history of tooth loss, impacted teeth or intracanal infection was noted clinically as well as radiographically. The lesion was completely excised and was sent for histopathological examination, which was diagnosed to be POM. Thereby, such cases reported in the clinics or the tertiary care hospitals should not come as a surprise as they are encountered commonly and should be diagnosed to be of apt quality.
