Abstract
Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is a rare, locally aggressive, mixed benign tumor occuring predominantly in children and young adults with no sex predilection. It usually occurs in the posterior segment of the mandible and is associated with unerupted teeth, causing a delay in eruption or alteration in the dental eruption sequence. As the aggressive clinical presentation mimicks malignancy, complete investigations play a vital role in accurate diagnosis. Here we report a case of ameloblastic fibroma in a 13 year-old male patient which clinically and radiographically masqueraded as a malignant neoplasm of jaw.
