Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Ameloblastoma is an uncommon odontogenic neoplasm that accounts for approximately 10% of all tumors originating from gnathic bones. Its behavior has often been described as benign but locallyaggressive, along with a high recurrence rates and also the capability of attaining large sizes leading to tremendous facial disfigurement. Clinical and imaging findings aid in the differential diagnosis of ameloblastomas; however, histopathological evaluation is essential for its definitive diagnosis. The objective of this case report is to describe a case of ameloblastoma, treated successfully by segmental resection, and provide a brief review of the current state of knowledge on this notorious benign tumor of the jaw.
