Desmoplastic ameloblastoma (DA) and Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) show common histopathologic features such as enamel organ like epithelial islands or cords on the background of abundant fibrous stroma. Despite their similar histopathologic features, it was reported that they have different pathogenesis and clinical behavior. The purpose of this study was to rev iew clinicopathologic features of DA and AF among Korean subjects. 7 cases of DA and 4 cases of AF were retrieved from the files of Seoul National University Dental Hospital (SNUDH), and their clinical features, radiographic findings, and histopathologic features were reviewed and compared. DA occurred in 3 males and 4 females. They occurred from 24 to 62 years of age, showing the mean age of 42.7 years. 5 of the 7 tumors occurred in the maxilla, and all of them in the anterior region, showing predilection for the maxillary anterior regions. There was no recurrence. Radiographically, they showed well demarcated unilocular or multilocular radiolucency. AF occurred in 5 males and 2 female. They occurred from 6 to 29 years of age, showing the mean age of 14 years. All tumors occurred in the mandibular molar area. Recurrence was recognized in 1 case. Although DA and AF showed similar histopathologic features, they showed different clinical behaviors. While DA showed predilection for the anterior maxilla, AF did for posterior mandible. While DA occurred mainly in adults, AF did in adolescents. Recurrence was recognized not in DA but in AF. Therefore, DA and AF should be differentiated from each other in spite of similar histopathologic findings
