Abstract EN

-A case of follicular ameloblastoma of the left maxilla in a 74-year-old man is reported.

The tumor was presented as a radiographically solid mass filling the left sinonasal cavity and invaded maxillary alveola.

After radical surgery, the patient has pursued a non-aggressive clinical course after 4 years of follow-up.

The radio-pathological features of this tumor were reviewed and the possibility of its sinonasal epithelium origin was discussed.
