Title: Pigmented ameloblastic fibro-odontoma: clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical profile. Author: Martínez Martínez M, Romero CS, Piña AR, Palma Guzmán JM, de Almeida OP. Journal: Int J Surg Pathol; 2015 Feb; 23(1):52-60. PubMed ID: 25339415. Abstract: Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a slow-growing, expansive, benign odontogenic tumor, composed of ameloblastic epithelium embedded in an ectomesenchymal stroma resembling dental papilla, containing hard dental tissue in variable degrees of maturation, including enamel, dentin, and sometimes cementum. AFO typically affects the posterior mandible, causing bony expansion. We report a case of pigmented AFO in a 5-year-old boy, comprising clinical and histological features illustrated by immunohistochemistry using a large panel of antibodies, polarized light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
