Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Odontogenic tumors
  • Soft tissue neoplasms

Background:

  • Peripheral ameloblastoma is a rare variant of ameloblastoma, originating from odontogenic epithelium and/or mesenchymal elements.
  • It accounts for 1-5% of all ameloblastoma cases and typically affects the alveolar mucosa and gingiva in middle-aged individuals.

Observation:

  • This article presents a case of peripheral ameloblastoma in a 20-year-old male.
  • The lesion was located in the gingiva, specifically the (upper/lower, vestibular/buccal) region.

Findings:

  • Detailed clinical presentation and microscopic examination of the peripheral ameloblastoma case.
  • Discussion of the diagnostic features and differential diagnosis for this rare lesion.

Implications:

Related Experiment Videos
