Diagnosis and Removal of a Dentigerous Cyst Complicated by Ameloblastic Fibro-odontoma in a Dog

Abstract

A large, deforming, dentigerous cyst involving the maxillary canine tooth was removed from a young Vizla dog. Subsequent histopathologic examination revealed ameloblastic fibro-odontoma within the cyst wall. Excision was complete and there was no evidence of recurrence one year post-operatively.
