    A rare, massive peripheral ameloblastoma case demonstrates slow, direct extension over years. Surgical management and a maxillary prosthesis ensured no recurrence and maintained oropharyngeal function.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Ameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic tumor with a high recurrence rate.
    • Peripheral ameloblastomas, arising from the oral mucosa, are less common than central types.
    • Long-standing lesions can pose significant management challenges due to size and local invasion.

    Observation:

    • A case of a massive peripheral ameloblastoma is presented.
    • The lesion exhibited direct extension and had been present for many years.
    • The patient underwent surgical intervention.

    Findings:

    • Complete excision of the peripheral ameloblastoma was achieved.
    • No recurrence was observed after a two-year follow-up period.
    • Oropharyngeal continuity was successfully restored using a maxillary prosthesis.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and complete surgical resection for peripheral ameloblastoma.
    • The successful use of a maxillary prosthesis demonstrates a viable method for functional and aesthetic rehabilitation.
    • Long-term follow-up is crucial to monitor for potential recurrence of ameloblastoma.
