Abstract
|
|
|
The unicystic ameloblastoma (UA) is a variant of the solid or multicystic ameloblastoma, a less encountered variant
of the ameloblastoma. It appears more frequently in the second or third decade with no sexual or racial predilection.
It is almost exclusively encountered asymptomatically in the posterior mandible.
We report a case of a 43-year old patient with UA, who had previously undergone a surgical treatment on the same
site about 1 year ago, this lesion recurred and presented as an exophytic gingival lesion in the anterior mandibular
region. (Korean J Oral Maxillofac Radiol 2008; 38 : 121-4)
