The ameloblastoma is a rare tumor of odontogenic epithelial origin. It is a neoplasm in which ameloblastic features are revealed by the primary growth in jaws and by any metastatic growth. Recurrences are usually local and distant metastases are rare. We present a case of a multirecurrent ameloblastoma of the mandible metastatic to the lung.
We present a case of a mandibular malignant ameloblastoma in a 42-year old man with widespread pulmonary metastases. Some of these lesions were treated surgically.
Ameloblastoma metastasis often occurs in the lung. The curative treatment is surgical. The results of palliative chemotherapy and radiotherapy are not always efficient.
成釉细胞瘤是一种罕见的牙源性上皮源性肿瘤。它是一种肿瘤,其成釉细胞特征通过颌骨的原发性生长和任何转移性生长得以体现。复发通常为局部性,远处转移罕见。我们报告一例下颌骨多复发成釉细胞瘤转移至肺部的病例。
我们报告一例42岁男性下颌骨恶性成釉细胞瘤伴广泛肺转移的病例。其中一些病灶接受了手术治疗。
成釉细胞瘤转移常发生于肺部。根治性治疗为手术。姑息性化疗和放疗的效果并非总是有效。
