Item Hormone–receptor expression status of epithelial ovarian cancer in Ibadan, South-western Nigeria(Hospital Universitário, Universidade de São Paulo (USP), São Paulo, Brazil, 2018) Salami, A.; Ezenkwa, U.; Salami, M.; Ajani, M. A.; Okolo, C.Ameloblastoma is an uncommon and locally aggressive, benign, odontogenic tumor, with local recurrence when not adequately excised. A rare variant of this neoplasm with the benign features but accompanied with metastases has been described. This rare variant is malignant ameloblastoma and is known to have a poor prognosis. We present the case of a young woman who had recurrent mandibular tumors, which were resected twice and histologically reported as ameloblastoma. Four years later, she presented with pulmonary metastasis and atelectasis. A review of the literature on this very rare neoplasm was also performed.Item Malignant ameloblastoma: a challenging diagnosis(Hospital Universitário, Universidade de São Paulo (USP), São Paulo, Brazil, 2018) Salami, A.; Ezenkwa, U.; Salami, M.; Ajani, M.
