Unicystic Ameloblastoma – A case report
Journal Title: Journal of Oral Medicine, Oral Surgery, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Ameloblastoma is the most significant and common odontogenic tumor of epithelial origin. It is a benign, locally invasive neoplasm. Its persistent local growth produces marked deformity. Its frequent recurrence occurs after conservative surgery. Unicystic ameloblastoma, a variant of ameloblastoma is believed to be less aggressive and responds more favorably to conservative surgery than the solid or multicystic types. The neoplastic nature of the lesion became evident only when the enucleated material was available for histopathologic examination. Here we present a case along with a review of the literature.
