Description

Nourhan Abou Madawi and colleagues report a jaw tumor case that illustrates a newly recognized diagnosis. Their case report appeared in BMC Oral Health in 2026. Adenoid ameloblastoma entered the World Health Organization classification only recently, and it behaves more aggressively than the conventional jaw tumor it resembles. A nineteen-year-old man came in with a painful swelling on the left side of his lower jaw that had grown over four months.

Imaging showed a multilocular see-through area in the bone, and a first biopsy read as ordinary ameloblastoma. After wide surgical removal, microscopy revealed the adenoid pattern: sieve-like sheets, duct-like spaces, and whorled cell clusters. Those features, sometimes backed by immune stains or molecular tests, separate this entity from look-alikes. The authors stress that case reports build the awareness surgeons and pathologists need. Missing the diagnosis risks undertreating a tumor that comes back harder.
