【 摘 要 】

Keratoameloblastoma (KA) is a rare histological variant of the ameloblastoma with extensive keratin production within the odontogenic islands as well as in the fibrous stroma. Pindborg first reported it in 1970, since then only 18 cases have been reported in the literature. We report a soft tissue recurrence of KA, involving right posterior region of the lower jaw in a 27-year-old female.
