Peripheral ameloblastoma is a rare, benign, slow-growing odontogenic neoplasm prevalent in the mandible. It originates from the odontogenic epithelium and its remnants, and its histological characteristics are identical to those of intraosseous ameloblastoma. It is less aggressive and invasive than its intraosseous variety, with a low recurrence rate.

Peripheral ameloblastoma (PA) is a rare benign tumor that can occur mostly in the mandibular gingiva of the premolar area, originating from the residual odontogenic epithelium. The patient is usually asymptomatic and the lesion can be an occasional finding during routine intraoral examination. Due to the lack of clinical and radiographic pathognomonic features, the diagnosis is based on histopathological analysis, associated with 3D computed tomography (CT) imaging.

Article Synopsis
- Adenoid ameloblastoma (AA) is a rare but locally aggressive benign tumor derived from dental tissue remnants, and it was recently classified as a new type of odontogenic lesion by the WHO in 2022.
- This tumor behaves more aggressively than similar types, presenting as a painless jaw swelling with a high recurrence rate and local invasiveness, and exhibits unique histopathological features such as a cribriform pattern and differential marker expression.
- Due to its complex nature and unclear origins, AA requires thorough clinical evaluation and customized treatment approaches to manage recurrence and improve patient outcomes, with the latest research contributing to its understanding post-classification.

Introduction: Ameloblastoma is a slow-growing benign odontogenic tumor of the jaws. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the epidemiological data of ameloblastoma in Kedah, to identify the clinicopathological characteristics that predict the outcome of the treatment and recurrence rate.
Methodology: A retrospective cohort study was conducted for patients who underwent treatment for ameloblastoma from 2007 to 2021.
