Ameloblastic carcinoma is a rare malignant odontogenic carcinoma that has metastatic potential, and because of its rare incidence, there are few reports focusing on its radiologic imaging. If it shows aggressive appearances, it can be diagnosed as malignant tumor. But in case of negative appearance, it is difficult to distinguish ameloblastic carcinoma from ameloblastoma. We report a case of ameloblastic carcinoma of the maxilla in a 76-year-old female patient with radiologic images and pathologic features.
成釉细胞癌是一种罕见的具有转移潜能的恶性牙源性肿瘤，由于其发病率低，很少有关于其放射影像学表现的报道。如果表现出侵袭性特征，可诊断为恶性肿瘤。但如果表现不典型，则很难将成釉细胞癌与成釉细胞瘤区分开来。我们报告一例76岁女性上颌骨成釉细胞癌病例，并展示其放射影像学图像及病理特征。
