“…This condition may appear clinically and radiographically to be vascular lesions or hemangiomas, which could lead to a diagnostic dilemma and/or surgical complications. 3,4 The radiographic appearance can mimic many other bone lesions and is not pathognomonic. A multilocular radiolucency with small (honeycomb appearance) or large (soap-bubble appearance) loculations precedes a unilocular radiolucency in the odontogenic lesions most frequently.…”

Ameloblastoma is a benign epithelial tumor of odontogenic origin which shows variations in its presentation that intrigue us. We report a case of unicystic ameloblastoma which presented, clinically and radiographically mimicking features of a vascular lesion. Patient reported with the chief complaint of pain and swelling in his left lower-third of the face. The investigations performed gave a diagnosis dilemma and hence deciding on appropriate investigations played a pivotal role to enable precise diagnosis of the lesion and also facilitated us surgeons to decide on the treatment plan.

Ameloblastoma, a benign epithelial odontogenic tumor, has an intriguing feature by virtue of its diverse histopathologic variants. One such variant that is not yet acclimatized in the literature due to the paucity of cases is “hemangiomatous ameloblastoma” (HA). HA exhibits the histology of conventional ameloblastoma with marked vascularity, which resembles the enamel organ and dental sac. Herein, we present the case of a 33-year-old male patient with swelling of the lower left back region of the jaw for 6 months, which on imaging presented multilocular radiolucency. Incisional biopsy was suggestive of ameloblastoma, and an excisional procedure showed odontogenic epithelial islands with marked vascular proliferation, based on which the diagnosis of HA was rendered. The rarity of this histologic variant and lack of long-term follow-up records in the literature challenges the clinician to predict its biological behavior. Hence, further research is required to understand the same.
