most common epithelial odontogenic tumor
ameloblastoma
most aggressive odontogenic tumor

unilocular
unicystic or cystic amelobl
most common subtype and multilocular
solid/multilocular amelobla
2 other subtype of amelobla
malignant ameloblastoma and ameloblastoc carcinoma

ameloblastoma rx
area of ameloblastoma
mandible molar-ramus area
unilater or bilater jaw expansion?
unilateral
are the teeth vital in ameloblastoma
vital teeth
palisading of columnar cells and straw-colored fluid aspirate
Ameloblastoma Hx
what makes straw-colored fluid
cholesterol crystal
histologic patterns
follicular plexiform granular cell basaloid/basal cell desmoplastic acanthomatous
most common histologic pattern
follicular/simple
what makes up a histologic pattern of ameloblastoma
palisading c cells
stellate-like cells
CT outside
mimics basal cell carcinoma
basaloid/basal cell
prominent thin strands with less islands
desmoplastic
2nd most common and with interconnecting strands
plexiform
same with follic but with squa metaplasia and stellate like cells can have keratin pearls
acanthomatous
found in mandible (molar-ramus area) and shows unilateral haw expo
CEOT
radiolucent or mixed lucent opaque is due to
amyloid substances can calcify
driven snow appearance

tx of ceot
same with ameloblastoma
pindborg tumor
ceot
