What surgery removes ameloblastoma?
Healthcare providers often classify tumor surgeries as being conservative or radical. In conservative surgery, your provider may remove your tumor and a small amount of healthy tissue and bone. In radical surgery, your provider may remove a larger amount of healthy tissue and bone to reduce the chance your tumor may come back. People who have radical surgery to remove their ameloblastomas typically have reconstructive surgery to replace the healthy tissue and bone and reduce any physical differences surgery may cause.
