title: [Muco-epidermoid carcinoma of the mandible. A case report (author's transl)].
abstract: Muco-epidermoid tumours are reviewed, and a case of a muco-epidermoid carcinoma of the mandible in a 78-year-old man reported. Radiological examination suggested the presence of an ameloblastoma, but the scanner provided evidence of a possible malignant tumour. Diagnosis of a muco-epidermoid carcinoma was confirmed by pathological examination after hemimandibulectomy.
