Abstract
HPV type 18 DNA was identified in an intrabony ameloblastoma using radiolabelled in situ hybridization. The viral DNA was found in a verrucous lesion in a cystic area of the tumor. The absence of HPV DNA in other epithelial areas of the ameloblastoma is suggestive of a secondary infection. HPV is not considered to be an etiological factor in the pathogenesis of this ameloblastoma.Entities:
