A 36-year-old male patient was diagnosed with a left mix multicystic ameloblastoma in the mandible. He underwent a segmental resection of the tumor, which removed the tumor mass and surrounding healthy tissue. His mandible was then reconstructed with a plate. Multicystic ameloblastomas like this one have a more aggressive nature and destructive morbidity than unicystic types due to their ability to invade surrounding soft tissue and perforate cortical bone.

ABSTRACT
Surgical management of ameloblastoma is divided into conservative and radical
approach. Radical approach is performed by resection of the mandible. Procedure of resection is perfomed by removing the tumor mass surgically involving the surrounding health tissue until the cutting border. Multicystic ameloblastoma have more agressive biologic behavior and more desctructive morbidity rather than the unicystic type. Mix type of ameloblastoma have a high recurrence rate due to invasion of lesion to surrounding soft tissue and cortical bone perforation. In this report, we will review a case of 36-year-old male patient diagnosed with left mix multicystic ameloblastoma in the mandible treated by segmental resection and plate reconstruction.
