Abstract

Ameloblastoma is a very uncommon neoplasm of odontogenic origin, which is a benign but locally aggressive tumor. It causes the expansion of the jaws' cortices with gross disfigurement and impairment in esthetics and functions. Here we present a 42 years old lady who presented to us with large solid ameloblastoma of the left side of the mandibular body and ramus. Left segmental resection with disarticulation of condyle and 1cm linear safe margins of mandibular body region was done. Stereolithic model was used to shape the reconstruction plate preoperatively and applied at the defect site to maintain the continuity of the mandible.
