The two cases presented here demonstrate a successful therapeutic modality with resection followed by immediate reconstruction with bone grafts. At least one of the cases presented seems to indicate that the tumor is relatively less aggressive than the simple ameloblastoma. The histopathology of the two cases suggests that this odontogenic tumor has a wider histologic variation than originally described by Pindborg.
