ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT The appearance of mixed odontogenic tumors into the oral cavity is a rare event. It is considered that some mixed tumors are only a stage in the complete development of a hamartomatous formation such as ameloblastic fibroodontoma and odontoma. Both pathologies share in common cellular elements which at one point makes them indistinguishable from each other. We present the case of a 21 year old patient who showed a mandibular growth whose histological elements present characteristics of both pathologies. The treatment was surgical excision of the lesion. There were no complications or recurrences to periodic reevaluation.

Se considera que algunos tumores mixtos son solo una etapa en el desarrollo completo de una formación hamartomatosa como el fibro-odontoma ameloblástico y odontoma. Ambas patologías comparten elementos celulares comunes que en un punto los hacen indistinguibles entre sí. Presentamos el caso de un paciente de 21 años que mostró un crecimiento mandibular cuyos elementos histológicos presentan características de ambas patologías. El tratamiento fue la escisión quirúrgica de la lesión. No hubo complicaciones o recurrencias a la reevaluación periódica.
