    Ameloblastic fibroma, a rare benign tumor, was identified in the maxilla of a young female patient. This case highlights the importance of histopathologic examination for accurate diagnosis of this odontogenic tumor.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology
    • Odontogenic Tumors
    • Neoplastic Pathology

    Background:

    • Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is a rare, benign odontogenic tumor characterized by a mixture of neoplastic epithelium and ectomesenchyme.
    • Typically, AF predominantly occurs in the mandible, making maxillary presentation uncommon.

    Observation:

    • A 22-year-old female presented with a right facial bulge, the only symptom of a maxillary tumor.
    • Radiographic imaging revealed a well-circumscribed neoplasm with multiple radiolucent cysts extending into the maxillary and ethmoid sinuses.

    Findings:

    • Surgical enucleation of the lesion was performed.
    • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of ameloblastic fibroma, showing characteristic epithelial and mesenchymal components.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known anatomical distribution of ameloblastic fibroma.
    • Accurate diagnosis and surgical management are crucial for treating this benign but potentially locally aggressive odontogenic tumor.
