ABSTRACT
Ameloblastoma is a neoplasm arising from the epithelium involved with the formation of teeth. They are usually benign, locally aggressive and recurrent, however, metastases are rare. The treatment is not clearly defined and the main therapeutic tool is surgical intervention. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy have not been shown encouraging results. As there are few cases reported in the medical literature and the treatment is challenging, we reported a case of a 53-year-old woman with recurrentameloblastoma, with local and distant recurrence, that remains alive over 25 years from diagnosis.
