Abstract

An ameloblastoma with histologic evidence of clear cells in a 15-year-old Nigerian male patient, who presented with a slow-growing, intraosseous, anterior mandibular swelling, is reported. The lesion was treated by surgery alone, and has not shown any recurrence 5 years after initial surgery.
