title: [Ameloblastomas in the growth period--aspects of differential diagnosis and therapy].
abstract: This paper is focussed on problems associated with the histological evaluation of odontogenic tissues in the growth period. It is particularly parts of the dental lamina or harmless odontogenic tumors (e.g. ameloblastic fibromas) that can be mistaken for ameloblastomas. Since these false diagnoses may occur in growing patients, radical resections for treatment of ameloblastomas should only be performed after a second histological evaluation and when typical intraosseous lesions are present.
