Papilliferous Keratoameloblastoma (PKA): Is It a Different Clinicopathological Entity or Histological Subtype of Conventional Ameloblastoma?
The uniform histopathological pattern observed across reported cases supports recognising PKA as a distinct histopathological subtype of conventional ameloblastoma. Its formal inclusion in odontogenic tumour classification appears justified, although further molecular and clinicopathological studies are needed to better define its biological behaviour.
