- Abstract
Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare odontogenic tumor. It is formed by proliferation of epithelial odontogenic elements combined with ectomesechimal tissue. The presence of dentine, enamel and osteoid like tissue can be identified. Cases of sarcomatous degeneration have been described. In this work, we present two new cases of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma, analyzing the most important aspects of their differential diagnosis, with a review of literature.
