ABSTRACT

 

Imani H, Mohammadian B, Khajeh A., Surgical repair of a congenital ameloblastoma in a cow calf, Onl J Vet Res., 18(12): 936-940, 2014.  A 10-day-old crossbred calf was referred due to progressive enlargement of a gingival mass presented at birth. Physical examination revealed a tumor-like mass posterior to the right third incisor in the lower jaw. Surgical removal was performed using an elliptical incision with at least 1 cm of healthy margin at the base of the mass. Histopathologic examination showed an odontogenic epithelium tumor without any dental structures  diagnosed as ameloblastoma. Recurrence or metastasis was not found at a 6 month examination.

 

Key words: surgical repair, congenital ameloblastoma, cow calf.
