title: Granular cell ameloblastoma of jaw. A report of rare case and brief review of literature.
abstract: Ameloblastoma is an epithelial odontogenic tumour of the jaw and exhibits diverse microscopic patterns which occurs either singly or in combination with other patterns. The rare granular cell variant is seen in combination usually with follicular or plexiform subtypes. The reported case reveals the microscopic patterns characteristic of granular cell variant only, which is uncommon. The tumour was excised and no recurrence has been observed after nineteen months of surgery.
