Introduction: Odontogenictumours cover a wide and diverse spectrum of tumours. Some odontogenictumours have a varied etiopathogenesis and share a presentation very similar to hybrid odontogenictumours. Ameloblastic fibroodontoma is one such Radhika Manoj Bavle1, Makarla Soumya2, K. Paremala2, Hosthor Sreelatha S.3, M. Sudhakara2, Venugopal Reshma3 Affiliations: 1M.D.S, Professor & Head, Departm...

Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is an extremely rare true mixed benign tumor that can occur in either the mandible or the maxilla, but is most frequently found in the posterior region of the mandible. It usually occurs in the first two decades of life and is associated with tooth enclosure, causing a delay in eruption or altering the dental eruption sequence. AF is diagnosed on routine radiographic e...

The clinical case of an unusual ameloblastic fibroodontoma (AFO) was reported. The patient’s clinical chart as well as preoperative and postoperative radiographs and histological findings of a 20-year old man that addressed Dental Clinic at University of L’Aquila were thoroughly reviewed. The patient showed a swelling in the oral cavity and radiographic feature of a radiolucent lesion at left s...

Background. Ameloblastic fibroodontoma (AFO) is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor with epithelial and mesenchymal components. AFO presents as a painless swelling in the mandible or maxilla. Radiographs show a well-defined radiolucent area containing various amounts of radiopaque material of irregular size and form. The common treatment is enucleation. It is not an aggressive tumor but recurrence a...

BACKGROUND Ameloblastic fibro-odontomas (AFO) are rare lesions and defined by the World Health Organisation as a tumour composed of a proliferation of odontogenic epithelium immersed in ectomesenchyme reminiscent of the interdental papilla. It also presents inductive processes leading to formation of enamel and dentine, confusing, histopathologically, with odontoma. Despite numerous efforts, th...

INTRODUCTION Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is a rare benign odontogenic tumor that usually occurs in the fi two decades of life. It affects adolescents and young adults and is found in the mandible and with a high frequency in the posterior region of this segment. There are rare case reports with a long-term follow-up. CASE OUTLINE We report the case of a 6-year-old boy with extensive ameloblasti...

The occurrence and manifestation of each ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is quite rare uncommon. Mentioned odontogenic tumor classification had changed over the years; however, treatment possibilities for this lesion remain same. In most cases surgical enucleation sufficient enough; bigger lesions might require bone curettage with sometimes performed bony ostectomy, which a effective method t...
