Abstract
Associated with purely the odontogenic epithelium, ameloblastomas are benign, locally aggressive tumors. Granular cell ameloblastomas represent the rare histopathological subtype within the ameloblastoma group and can occur in up to 5% of all cases. This variant of ameloblastoma is aggressive with high recurrence rate of 33.3. In this presentation a case of granular cell ameloblastoma is reported which passed in a 28- year-old male, extending from the right angle of mandible to the left angle of mandible. Histopathologically, tumor showed generally follicular pattern, with central sheets of giant eosinophilic granular cells and peripheral ameloblast-like cell in confluence with the presence of ghost cells which is a rare presentation.
