CLINICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL CHARAKTERISTICS OF AMELOBLASTOMAS OF JAWS AND THEIR DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS

The purpose of the study is to examine the clinical radiological features of the amtereloblastomas through a comprehensive survey of patients and assess the possibility of conducting differential diagnosis based on the data obtained.Under our observation there were 267 patients with benign tumors of the upper and lower jaws, which were carried out with a clinical examination and surgical treatment with subsequent histological examination of the material. An analysis of the clinical symptoms of ameloblastomas was carried out, the X-ray systematization of cystic forms of this tumor was proposed.The use of a comprehensive clinical examination of patients with tumors and tumor-like formations of jaws (computed tomography, radiological and ultrasound methods of examination) makes it possible to increase the accuracy during their differential diagnosis.
