Desmoplastic fibroma is a locally aggressive benign fibrous tumor of bone that has been reported in both the maxillofacial skeleton and the long bones. Desmoplastic fibroma of the extremities was first reported by Jaffe1 in 1958. The first description of this entity involving the jaws was reported by Griffith and Irby2 in 1965. In rare instances, multifocal desmoplastic fibromas have been repor...

Desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma is a very rare supratentorial tumor occurring in the first two years of life. A five-month-old female infant presented with recurrent seizures, large head and loss of acquired milestones. Computerized Tomographic Scan of brain showed a large subarachnoid cyst with a solid intensely contrast enhancing tumor in the right temporoparietal region with severe degr...

Introduction Ameloblastoma is common benign epithelial tumor of odontogenic origin. The presentation ameloblastoma unique as it locally aggressive with high recurrence rate if not treated adequately. This study aimed to conduct retrospective analyze the characteristics and management in patient Oral Maxillofacial Surgery at Hasan Sadikin General Hospital between periods January 2020 – December ...

Ameloblastoma, a benign epithelial odontogenic tumor, is locally aggressive. This tumor comprises about 1% of tumors and cysts arising in the jaws. It appears most commonly in the third to fifth decades and with equal frequency between sexes. Ameloblastoma prevalently occurs in the mandibular molar and the ramus areas. Recurrence frequently appears after inadequate treatment. They are usually b...

Maxillary ameloblastoma is quite rare especially the one that outcomes facial deformity. Eighty-five percent of ameloblastoma cases happen to the mandible, mostly in the molar-ascending area. About 15% of ameloblastomas occur in maxilla. We are reporting a maxillary ameloblastoma case of an Indonesian patient. Bilateral Weber Ferguson approach was performed to facilitate total maxillectomy and ...

Ameloblastomas are rare odontogenic epithelial tumors that occur mainly in the mandible. Despite their benign histologic appearance, they are locally aggressive with a high recurrence rate. However, a metastasizing ameloblastoma has been rarely reported. According to the current World Health Organization classification system, the definitive diagnosis of metastasizing ameloblastoma can only be ...

Introduction Ameloblastoma is an uncommon epithelial odontogenic neoplasm that is nonmineralized, locally aggressive and in most cases it is benign. Ameloblastoma accounts for approximately 10% of all tumors that originate in the maxilla and mandible. It often presents as a slow growing, painless swelling, causing expansion of the cortical bone, perforation of the lingual and/or buccal plates a...

Peripheral Ameloblastoma (PA) is the rarest variant of ameloblastoma. It differs from the other subtypes of ameloblastoma in its localization: it arises in the soft tissues of the oral cavity coating the tooth bearing bones. Generally, it manifests nonaggressive behavior and it can be treated with complete removal by local conservative excision. In this study we report a case of PA of the maxil...

The ameloblastoma has been described as benign but locally invasive; benign and locally invasive with strong tendency to recur; and locally malignant. Recurrence of this lesion in to the infratemporal and temporal region are rarely reported cases. Complete excision of lesion was done with the help of the advance imaging modalities and possible cause of recurrence in this case is discussed.

Admixed ameloblastoma comprises of a combination more than one histomorphological patterns ameloblastoma. The present case report discusses admixed extensively involving the entire body mandible bilaterally in 25-year-old male. was managed by segmental resection using osteotomy to remove segment along with right coronoid process. Histopathological examination excised tumor revealed highly proli...
