Abstract

This is a review of 20 cases of ameloblastomas diagnosed and treated at the Dental Faculty, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur. The clinical features, histological features and treatment methods are presented. Two basic clinical types namely the conventional (solid/multicystic) and unicystic ameloblastomas showed different recurrence rates. Discrepancies between the recurrent rates in this study for conventional ameloblastoma and for unicystic ameloblastoma and those of other reports are discussed. A brief discussion on the treatment modalities used is also presented.
