[Single-cystic ameloblastoma at an early age. 2 case reports].
Two cases of unicystic ameloblastoma in the mandible of young children are described. Conservative surgery is justified in children due to the lower risk of recurrence compared to cases of solid ameloblastoma and the risk of growth disturbance after radical surgery. However, long-term follow-up is necessary.
