| Popis: |
Ameloblastic carcinoma is an exceptionally rare and aggressive orofacial neoplasm that belongs to a family of malignant epithelial odontogenic tumours. The aetiology remains largely unknown, however most cases are presumed to have arisen de novo, with few of them presenting following malignant transformation of ameloblastoma. We report our experience with three rare cases of ameloblastic carcinoma seen in Nigerians. This is an addition to the sparse literature and to our knowledge; there has been no such report from sub-Saharan Africa. |
