BONY LESIONS OF
MANDIBLE/
MAXILLA:
Ameloblastoma
Radiograph and CT
Multicystic ameloblastomas account for 80-90% of cases which are classically expansile "soap-
bubble" lesions, with well-demarcated borders and no matrix calcification. Resorption of adjacent
teeth and “root blunting” is often a feature. When larger it may also erode through the cortex into
adjacent soft tissues.
Unicystic ameloblastomas are well-demarcated unilocular lesions that are often pericoronal in
position. These are commonly found in the posterior mandible, particularly at the molars. They
are indistinguishable from other unilocular pericoronal lesions, such as dentigerous cysts,
ameloblastic fibromas and odontogenic keratocysts on CT.
MRI
In general, ameloblastomas demonstrate a mixed solid and cystic pattern, with a thick irregular
wall, often with solid papillary structures projecting into the lesion. These components tend to
enhance vividly which is very helpful to distinguish them from other lucent lesions of the
mandible.
OKC
‘They are typically seen as a solitary, radiolucent, unilocular, expansile lesion with smooth,
corticated borders 5, These cortices are often scalloped around the roots of teeth, Three-quarters
of lesions are located In the posterior mandible. When in the mandible, they typically grow along
the length of the bone with minimal buccolingual expansion. In the maxil, they expand into the
‘maxillary sinus. They average 3 cm in size,
‘Te appearance and location can vary". f associated with the crown af an uneruptedimpacted
tooth, they can mimic a dentigerous cyst. f associated withthe roots of nonsitaltooth, they can
mimic a radicular cyst. large enough, they will resorb the roots of adjacent teeth. They may
‘occasionally appear septated, making the distincion from ameloblastoma dificult
CT
Reminiscent of plan radiographic findings, but in better deal Visualised asanexpansle cystic

viscosity. Cortical breach suggests possible soft tissue involvement.

+ Ta: heterogeneous signal

in addition, a number of other associations are recognised including:

In addition to enlarged lateral ventricles with an absent septum pellucidum, CT may demonstrate
small optic apparatus (best seen with volumetric scanning and coronal reformats) and associated
