Discovery of novel molecular characteristics and cellular biological properties in ameloblastoma [PDF]
Ameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic benign tumor accounting for less than 1% of head and neck tumors. Advanced next generation sequencing (NGS) analyses identified high frequency of BRAF V600E and SMO L412F mutations in ameloblastoma.

Molecular biological findings of ameloblastoma
Ameloblastoma is benign odontogenic tumours that mainly occur in the jawbone. This tumour induces aggressive invasion into the surrounding bone and has a high recurrence rate after surgery.

Detection of human papillomavirus DNA in intraosseus ameloblastoma [PDF]
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been shown as a risk factor in oral carcinogenesis. The association between HPV and benign and malignant neoplasm of oral mucosa, especially surface epithelium-derived tumors, is well established.

Extreme ameloblastoma of the mandible with hypoproteinemia: a case report and review of clinicopathological features [PDF]
Ameloblastoma is a tumor of odontogenic epithelium. It has an intermediate malignant potential, thus positioning it in a gray zone between benign and malignant neoplasms. Invasive ameloblastomas of excessive size are rarely confronted.
