Introduction: The objective was to determine a conservative or radical surgical treatment suitable for the odontogenic myxoma.
 
Method: The study considered a clinical case of odontogenic myxoma in the upper jaw in an adult female patient, for which a radical treatment was chosen due to the size of the tumor.
 
Results: The clinical case was assessed based on clinical, imaging, and histopathological criteria and according to the current scientific evidence. The en bloc resection treatment was determined for this case.
 
Conclusions: Radical treatment, such as en bloc resection, seems to be the most appropriate to prevent recurrence of the tumor, especially in cases of extensive lesions such as the one reported.
