A case of ameloblastic fibroma in a female Nigerian child aged 4 years is reported. The case is shown to present the main clinical and histological features described in similar cases. Two unusual findings are emphasised, namely the radiographical appearance of multilocular rather than the usual unilocular radiolucency and the great extent of bone erosion. Thorough curettage is advocated as the treatment of choice and careful follow-up is recommended.
报告了一例4岁尼日利亚女童的成釉细胞纤维瘤病例。该病例呈现出与类似病例中所描述的主要临床和组织学特征。强调了两个不寻常的发现,即影像学表现为多房性而非通常的单房性透光影,以及骨质侵蚀范围较大。主张采用彻底刮除术作为首选治疗方法,并建议进行仔细的随访。
