Granüler hücreli dev ameloblastoma

Ameloblastom çeşitli gelişim aşamalarındaki enamel organ ve fibröz stromalı epitelden gelişen odontojenik bir neoplazidir. Ameloblastom maksilla ve mandibuladaki tümörlerin %1'ini ve odontojenik kaynaklı tümörlerin %11 'ini oluşturur. Genellikle benigndir. Ortalama 20-50 yaşları arasında sıktır. Cinsiyet ve ırk ayrımı göstermez. %80 mandibulada, %20 maksillada görülür. En sık molar diş komşuluğu ile ramustan gelişir.
