Ethanol Ablation for Odontogenic myxoma: New alternative of conservative treatment
Odontogenic myxoma is a maxillofacial tumor that is benign in nature. It is characterized by a slow-growing, painless, and site-aggressive behavior. A main feature is that it is not encapsulated so it has high potential of invasiveness and penetration ...
