Desmoplastic ameloblastoma is a rare variant of ameloblastoma. Up until now, less than 150 patients have been reported in the literature. We report a case of desmoplastic ameloblastoma in a 45-year-old female with a painless swelling in the left anterior maxillary region. Fine needle aspiration yielded no fluid. Periapical and panoramic radiographs as well as computer tomography scan showed a m...

A 40-year-old man suffered from a repeatedly recurrent desmoplastic ameloblastoma in the right maxillary anterior and premolar regions. During the first visit, the patient was provisionally histopathologically diagnosed with a developmental cyst, and it was confirmed to be unicystic ameloblastoma and resected. Four years later, the lesion recurred, and was diagnosed as a desmoplastic type of am...

Desmoplastic ameloblastoma is a relatively rare subtype of ameloblastoma. Tumor resection with curettage is considered the most reliable treatment for desmoplasticameloblastoma because of its aggressive behavior with bone invasion. A 43-year-old Japanese man presented with a swelling on the left side of his anterior maxilla. A painless, bone-like hard swelling was observed in the anterior maxil...

Objective. To study the pathomorphological structure of ameloblastomas and work out their classification. Materials methods. Histological analysis material obtained after removal jaws in 67 patients was carried out. Results. Pathomorphological classification suggested based on studies Conclusions. The term “ameloblastoma” refers to two groups tumours: true pseudoameloblastomas. Eight structural...

Background: Hybrid Ameloblastoma is a rare type of ameloblastoma that is presently receiving attention in some quarters. Altogether, less than 30 cases have been reported in the scientific literature, thus calling for the need to report more cases in order to add to the body of knowledge on this lesion. This case report is aimed to add to the number of cases that are building up in the scientif...

In this study we present a rare case of peripheral desmoplastic ameloblastoma and discuss its clinical features, histopathology, and immunohistochemical profile. This article reports a new case of this unusual neoplasm in a 66 year-old woman in which the main complaint was an asymptomatic swelling located in the right body of mandible. Histopathological findings were similar to the two previous...

The desmoplastic variant of ameloblastoma is a rare form of ameloblastoma characterized by unique radiographic and histologic features. A 46-year-old female was referred to our hospital, complaining of swelling in the left upper lip area. Radiographic findings revealed an ill-defined multilocular lesion with a large cystic lesion and thick sclerotic trabeculae on the left anterior maxilla. Afte...

adenoid ameloblastoma with dentinoid is a rare odontogenic tumor. granular cell ameloblastoma also is a less common histological subtype of ameloblastoma. in this report, the patient was a 31‑year‑old male. the lesion was located in the right mandible and was unicystic with well‑defined borders. the tumor tissue was showing a combination of follicular, plexiform, and desmoplastic patterns of am...
