Synchronous cemento-ossifying fibromas: a systematic review.
Med Oral Patol Oral Cir Bucal
September 2024
Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Faculdade de Odontologia, Rua Ramiro Barcelos, 2492, sala 503 CEP: 90035-003, Santana, Porto Alegre RS, Brazil
Article Synopsis
- - This systematic review analyzed published data on synchronous cemento-ossifying fibromas (COF), including their demographic and clinical features, utilizing various databases and following PRISMA guidelines.
- - A total of 19 studies with 20 COF cases were examined, revealing a mean patient age of 35 years, a predominance of female patients (60%), and simultaneous involvement of the mandible and maxilla in 65% of cases.
- - Management typically involved surgical procedures, with a recurrence rate noted in 15% of cases that had follow-ups, and the findings suggest that synchronous COF is rare, especially affecting women in their 30s.
Malignant transformation of primary ameloblastoma of skull: case report and review of current literature.
Front Oncol
March 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Guangdong Sanjiu Brain Hospital, Guangzhou, China.
Background: Since 1964, there has been a scarcity of reported cases of primary ameloblastoma (AM) or ameloblastic carcinoma (AMCa) of the skull. The clinical presentation and distinctive features of this uncommon condition at specific anatomical sites remain unclear. We report a case of malignant transformation of a primary AM of the skull situated in the frontal-temporal-parietal region and highlight its similarities to other cases reported in the literature.

Rare Ameloblastic Carcinoma Metastasis to the Cervical Spine: A Case Report.
Neurosurgery
May 2021
Department of Neurosurgery, University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital, Birmingham, Alabama, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - Ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) is a rare and aggressive type of cancer that mainly affects the jaw and has a high chance of coming back after treatment, accounting for about 2% of odontogenic tumors.
- - A case study of a 61-year-old woman with AC showed it metastasized to her cervical spine, causing severe neck pain and neurological issues, which required complex surgical procedures.
- - Despite surgery leading to some stability initially, the patient experienced a decline in health due to lung metastases, emphasizing the poor prognosis of AC even with multiple treatment options.
