ABSTRACT
Ameloblastic carcinoma is a highly malignant tumour and requires aggressive treatment. This case report describes an aggressive ameloblastic carcinoma that infiltrated the mandible. Mandibulectomy with right functional radical neck dissection and left supra omohyoid dissection was followed by primary reconstruction with a single free vascularised fibula flap. The post-operative course was uneventful. The 2 year regular follow up revealed no signs of recurrent tumour or metastasis. Future reporting of this rare condition is encouraged in lieu of limited information in its clinical course and prognosis.
