Peripheral ameloblastoma of the gingiva

Abstract: Peripheral Ameloblastoma (PA) is a benign odontogenic tumor, arising from the cell rest of Serres, reduced enamel epithelium and basal cells of the surface epithelium. Peripheral ameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic neoplasm occurring commonly in the mandibular gingiva. PA clinically resembles other peripherally occurring lesions like pyogenic granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma, peripheral giant cell granuloma, and squamous papilloma. The recurrence rate of PA is 16-19% which demands a straight follow up. … Show more

“…According to their findings, the tumour most commonly manifested itself as a swelling over the afflicted region (mandible in 80% of instances) in people aged 36 and higher, with an even gender distribution. 22 It supports the current study in which the most affected age group was between 26-50 years (49.4%), had male predilection (58.6%), and occurred maximally on the mandible (88.5%).…”

“… 4 Among these, peripheral ameloblastoma is an uncommon variant with a prevalence of 1-5%. 5 The most probable sources of PA are; the remnants of dental lamina so-called "glands of Serres", odontogenic remnants of the vestibular lamina, the pluripotent cells of the basal layer of the mucosal epithelium, and the pleuripotent cells of the minor salivary gland. 6 …”

“…Andererseits wird lediglich eine konservative supraperiostale Exzision mit einem schmalen zirkulären Band an unverändertem Gewebe empfohlen (Beena et al 2012;Philipsen et al 2001;Upadhyaya et al 2018). Letzterer Therapieansatz lässt jedoch eine erhöhte Wahrscheinlichkeit für ein Rezidiv, bedingt durch eine unvollständige Exzision, vermuten (Beena et al 2012;Vezhavendhan et al 2020;Zhang et al 2018).…”
