The Histological Diversities of Granular Cells in Ameloblastoma- A Diagnostic Quandary

Abstract

Granular cells are the histological components in various odontogenic and non-odontogenic tumors of the oral cavity. Among the odontogenic tumors they are seen in granular cell ameloblastoma, plexiform granular cell odontogenic tumor, central granular cell odontogenic tumor earlier called as granular cell ameloblastic fibroma or central granular cell odontogenic fibroma, calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor and granular cell odontogenic cyst. We report two cases of ameloblastoma showing granular cells, with questionable categorization of the lesion.
