Abstract

Unicystic ameloblastoma (UA) refers to those cystic lesions that show clinical, radiographic, or gross features of a mandibular cyst, but on histological examination show a typical ameloblastomatous epithelium lining part of the cyst cavity, with or without luminal and/or mural tumour growth. In this case report we present a uncommon multilocular unicystic ameloblastoma encountered in a 40 year old female patient.
