Granular cell ameloblastoma
A 42-year-female patient presented with a swelling on the left side of the face for the past 10 years. The radiograph shows multilocular radiolucency with evidence of root resorption. Histopathology reveals fibrous connective tissue exhibiting numerous odontogenic epithelial islands with peripheral tall columnar cells showing a reversal of polarity. The center of the island shows stellate retic...
متن کاملGranular Cell Ameloblastoma: A Case Report
Granular cell ameloblastoma is a rare condition, accounting for 3.5% of all ameloblastoma cases. The granular cell ameloblastoma, in most instances is found as an admixture with other histologic patterns, particularly the follicular subtype.

متن کاملGranular Cell Ameloblastoma: An Unusual Variant
Ameloblastoma is a neoplasm of odontogenic epithelium, especially of enamel organ-type tissue that has not undergone differentiation to the point of hard tissue formation. Granular cell ameloblastoma is a rare condition, accounting for 3.5% of all ameloblastoma cases that shows marked transformation in the cytoplasm of tumor cells, which are usually stellate reticulum like cells. It is also con...
متن کاملGranular Cell Ameloblastoma- a Case Report
Ameloblastoma is an epithelial odontogenic tumour of the jaw and exhibits diverse microscopic patterns which occurs either singly or in combination with other patterns. Granular cells can occur in various odontogenic and non-odontogenic tumours. Granular cell ameloblastoma is a rare variant of ameloblastoma as making up 1 to 5% of all ameloblastomas that histopathologically has numerous large g...
متن کاملAntigenic Heterogeneity in Granular Cell Ameloblastoma: An Immunohistochemical Study
BACKGROUND Nature of granular cells in granular cell ameloblastoma (GCA) has always invoked considerable interest. The present study aims at antigenic characterization in five such cases with a panel of markers. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tissue specimens of five patients with GCA were fixed in buffered formalin and later embedded in paraffin wax. Blocks were sliced into 3 µ thick sections for imm...
