case_images: The panoramic radiograph showed radiolucency extending from tooth 33 to the mesial root of 46 [Figure 1].
case_images: (a) The tumor epithelium arranged in a network and bounded by a layer of columnar ameloblast like cells with center cells resembling stellate reticulum. (b) Figures at low power and high power. Photomicrograph showing thin cords, strands and network of odontogenic epithelium lined by ameloblasts-like cells and stellate reticulum like cells in the center under H & E Staining (x10). (c) Photomicrograph showing peripheral ameloblast-like cells with reversal of polarity under H & E staining (x40)
