Description
Summary:Our experience in the management of eleven cases of massive ameloblastomas of the jaws seen during the last fourteen years in the department of Surgery at the King George's Medical College, Lucknow is being presented.

Of the three modalities used for reconstructing the defect, bone grafts gave the best acceptable results.
