Summary

This report details a rare papilliferous keratoameloblastoma, only the second documented case. The mandibular lesion exhibited unique histological features, differing from typical ameloblastoma, necessitating further research for classification.

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Odontogenic tumors
  • Histopathology

Background:

  • Ameloblastoma is a common odontogenic tumor.
  • Keratoameloblastoma is a rare variant.
  • This case presents a unique histological subtype.

Observation:

  • A 76-year-old female presented with a large, expansile, multilocular radiolucency in the mandible.
  • Histological examination revealed cystic follicles with necrotic debris and parakeratin.
  • Follicles were lined by papilliferous epithelium with central nuclei and true papillary projections.

Findings:

  • The lesion displayed features distinct from classic ameloblastoma.
  • Papilliferous epithelium and stratified squamous epithelium were noted.
  • Absence of typical ameloblastoma histological markers was observed.

Implications:

  • This case represents the second documented instance of papilliferous keratoameloblastoma.
  • Further case reports are crucial for definitive classification.
  • Understanding this rare entity aids in differential diagnosis of mandibular lesions.
