pubmed:abstractText
Ameloblastomas are benign tumors of odontogenic epithelial origin. There is a high incidence of local recurrence associated with these tumors, and distant metastasis is rare. A review of the English literature shows that there have been 41 prior reports of pulmonary metastases from ameloblastomas of the oral cavity. We present another case of ameloblastoma metastatic to the lung and review the histopathology and mechanism of metastatic spread.
