Major Considerations on the Clinical, Epidemiological, Histopathological and Therapeutic Aspects of Ameloblastomas: A Systematic Review

Due to its incidence and its clinical behavior, ameloblastoma has been attracting interest from health researchers and clinicians. [...]this study aimed to carry out a review of the literature, from 2003 to 2019 on the origin, epidemiology, clinical characteristics, imaging, histopathological and ameloblastoma treatment. According to its clinical characteristics, ameloblastoma corresponds to 1% of the tumors and cysts present in the jaw region [4-7]. Multilocular ameloblastomas have higher relapse rates than unilocular ones. [...]the true margin of the tumor often extends beyond the apparent clinical or radiographic margin [2]. According to the authors, all the cases of ameloblastoma submitted to curettage redicivated in the period of 1 to 15 years.
