Ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) is an aggressive malignant epithelial odontogenic tumor. It may appear de novo or originate from a pre-existing ameloblastoma or odontogenic cyst. To our knowledge, an AC that originates from the anterior skull base has not been reported before in the English literature. We report a case of an AC that originated from the anterior skull base and invaded the dura of the anterior fossa and discuss its clinical course and treatment.
成釉细胞癌(AC)是一种侵袭性恶性上皮性牙源性肿瘤。它可能原发出现,也可能起源于先前存在的成釉细胞瘤或牙源性囊肿。据我们所知,英文文献中此前尚未报道过起源于前颅底的成釉细胞癌。我们报告一例起源于前颅底并侵犯前颅窝硬脑膜的成釉细胞癌病例,并讨论其临床病程及治疗情况。
