Online published on 26 July, 2017. Abstract A ten year old buffalo was presented with large foot ball sized mass on right lower jaw since last two years. Thorough clinical examination revealed hard bony tumor with first two right incisors embedded in the mass. The mass was surgically excised under mental nerve block and cavity was packed with tincture benzoin soaked gauze. On histopathologic examination, the neoplasm showed presence of dental papilla characterized by homogenous non cellular material (dentin and enamel) lined by columnar epithelium cells (ameloblasts) embedded in myxomatous fibrous stroma thus confirming ameloblastic fibroodontoma. The buffalo made an uneventful recovery with healing through second intention. Top Keywords Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma, buffalo. Top |
