Abstract
Ameloblastoma is the second most common intraosseous benign odontogenic tumor usually affecting the posterior region of mandible, is slowly
growing, locally invasive, epithelial odontogenic of the jaw with a high rate to recurrence. This is a lesion whose clinical and radiographical
features are similar to all the variants, and a definitive diagnosis is achieved by histopathology only. Ameloblastoma has histologicall patterns,
these pattern are follicular, plexiform, acanthomatous and granular cell. other less common histological variants are clear cell and desmoplastic
cells. Variants with more than one histological pattern for the same ameloblastoma could show, depending on the direction and degree of
differentiation of tumor cells. Here we present a serial case with more than one type of histologic variants of conventional ameloblastoma seen.
