摘要
Introduction: Unicystic ameloblastoma (UCA) is a variant of ameloblastoma and accounts for 6% of all ameloblastomas. It arises from pre-existing odontogenic cysts or de novo. Rarely, does UCA present with diverse histopathologic patterns.Case Presentation: We present a case of UCA that was treated conservatively which presented with a mixture of histological patterns.Management and Prognosis: A 12-year-old male patient complained of swelling in his left mandibular region. Radiographic investigation showed multilocular radiolucency. On histopathologic examination, a diagnosis of unicystic ameloblastoma was made. A conservative treatment option was undertaken for the patient.Conclusion: Unicystic ameloblastoma of the mural type require resection but given the young age of the patient, a conserva-tive approach was planned and the patient responded well to the treatment.
