A rare case of huge maxillary ameloblastoma in a 3.5 years old girl.

Ameloblastoma is a benign locally invasive odontogenic tumor. It is the most common odontogenic tumor [1]. Usually, in the middle-aged population, it is more common in the mandible with about 5-20% occurring in the maxilla. We report a case of maxillary unicystic ameloblastoma in a 3.5-year-old girl. Which presented clinically as a large facial swelling causing severe facial deformation and pressure symptoms on the left eye. CT scan showed that the swelling extended to involve the orbital floor. The lesion was diagnosed and confirmed by incisional biopsy then was successfully managed by maxillectomy and immediate reconstruction using the buccal pad of fat. One year follow up with no further complaints and no recurrence was observed.
