RESUMEN

Unicystic ameloblastoma (UCA) is a cystic lesion that shows clinical, radiographic, or gross features of an odontogenic cyst, but reveals a typical ameloblastomatous epithelium lining in the cyst cavity, with or without luminal and/or mural tumor growth. This article reports the case of a 22-year-old man with dull intermittent pain and swelling in the mandible. Histopathological examination revealed a UCA of a luminal, intraluminal, and intramural histological subgroup, which has a high risk for recurrence.
