Abstract

This study was done to evaluate radiological and histological type of Ameloblastoma and their assotiation with marginal clearance after jaw resection. The prospective observational study was done in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Dhaka Dental College and Hospital from July 2010 to 2011. Total twenty patients were recruited by convenient sampling maintaining inclusion and exclusion criteria. The following variables were considered in all patients including age and sex, site of the lesion, symptom of the lesion, Radiological findings, Histological findings, Macroscopic/pathologic findings and detection of marginal clearance after resection of jaw bone in Ameloblastoma. The present study reveals that resection of jaw bone with 1 cm healthy margin for locally aggressive Ameloblastoma is an effective treatment modality as 95% resected specimen showed tumour free margin and no recurrence within two years.
