成釉细胞瘤：一种需要识别的肿瘤。

Can J Surg. 1981 Jan;24(1):76-8.

The clinical presentation of ameloblastoma is illustrated by two contrasting cases; in one case the tumour was identified preoperatively while in the other it masqueraded as a dentigerous cyst. The authors stress the importance of making a positive diagnosis and the need for a thorough histologic examination of excised tissue because this tumour is potentially disfiguring and sometimes lethal if it is not adequately excised.

成釉细胞瘤的临床表现通过两个截然不同的病例得以体现；在一个病例中，肿瘤在术前被确诊，而在另一个病例中，它伪装成含牙囊肿。作者强调了做出明确诊断的重要性以及对切除组织进行全面组织学检查的必要性，因为这种肿瘤如果切除不充分，可能会导致容貌毁损，有时甚至会危及生命。
