title: Mandibular ameloblastoma.
abstract: Ameloblastoma is an uncommon invasive mandibular tumor usually occurring as a painless enlargement of the jaw. Radiologic evidence of a multilocular lesion requires biopsy for histopathologic distinction. With its propensity for recurrence, en bloc resection of the tumor is recommended. Careful and meticulous follow-up for an extended period is necessary.
