Objective: To determine the efficacy of radiotherapy in the treatment of ameloblastoma and ameloblastic

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor consisting of both ectodermal and mesenchymal components. It occurs predominantly in children and adolescents, especially in the mandibular posterior region. Histopathologically, AFO exhibits the combination of ameloblastic fibroma-like tissue and complex odontoma. A case of AFO in a 1-year-old child was presented. It produced ...

An ameloblastic fibroodontoma (AFO) is a rare odontogenic tumor of mixed dental tissue origin. It exhibits histological features of ameloblastic fibroma and complex odontoma. AFOs are usually found to be asymptomatic and are most often discovered on routine radiography. Sometimes their presence is suspected due to missing permanent dentition. We report a case of an 18-year-old female patient wi...

Ameloblastic carcinomas are rare odontogenic tumors. Treatment usually consists of surgical resection and sometimes adjuvant radiation. We report the case of a 71 year-old male patient undergoing carbon ion therapy for extensive local relapse of ameloblastic carcinoma. Treatment outcome was favourable with a complete remission at 6 weeks post completion of radiotherapy while RT-treatment itself...

Histological evaluation revealed multiple fragments of richly cellular mesenchymal tissue containing round droplike islands and long narrow anastomosing cords of odontogenic epithelium. The epithelial islands and cords were characterized by peripheral columnar or cuboidal hyperchromatic cells and were frequently only two cell layers thick (Fig. 2). The mesenchymal component contained evenly dis...

ameloblastic carcinoma (ac) is a rare malignant epithelial odontogenic tumor that histologically retains the features of ameloblastic differentiation and exhibits cytological features of malignancy in the primary or recurrent tumor. it may develop within a preexisting ameloblastoma or arise de novo or from an odontogenic cyst. epidemiological evidence shows that human cancer is generally caused...

Despite Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is a rare odontogenic tumour, it occurs predominantly in children and therefore remain an important diagnostic consideration.1 It usually arises from the mandibular dentition although it can arise in maxilla.2 AF consists of odontogenic ectomesenchyme resembling the dental papilla and epithelium resembling dental lamina and enamel organ without dental hard tiss...

Background: Ameloblastic carcinoma is a rare and malignant odontogenic tumour possibly arising de-novo from pre-existing ameloblastoma. It aggressive locally destructive. Ameloblastoma the most common benign of mandible. originates tooth-forming epithelium, where its aetiology remains unknown. usually grows slowly, asymptomatic, destroys surrounding bone tissue. Malignant transformation amelobl...

tumours of odontogenic origin have been reported in various domestic animals. ameloblastic fibroodontomais a rare tumour derived from odontogenic epithelium and pulpal mesenchyme. plain andformalised sections from masses on the front of the cranial aspect of the jaw and the end of the tongue of acastrated beef cattle from an abattoir was submitted to mt pleasant laboratories, launceston, austra...
