Skin Cancer

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Ameloblastic fibroma is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor, predominantly affecting the posterior mandible in young males.
It is characterized by neoplastic epithelial and mesenchymal tissues resembling dental papilla and enamel organ, but without hard tissue formation.

Observation:

A 34-year-old male presented with mandibular pain and swelling, exhibiting facial asymmetry.
Clinical and imaging findings suggested an odontogenic cyst or recurrent ameloblastoma.
The lesion was surgically enucleated under general anesthesia.

Findings:

Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of Ameloblastic fibroma.
This rare odontogenic tumor comprises epithelial and ectomesenchymal components.

Implications:

Ameloblastic fibroma has an 18% recurrence rate and a 45% potential for malignant transformation into ameloblastic fibrosarcoma.
Accurate diagnosis and complete surgical excision are crucial for managing this benign jaw neoplasm.
