dc.description.abstract | Objectives: To provide epidemiological data of ameloblastomas of the jaws in the Netherlands over a 25-year time period (1985-2010) and to compare these data with data from other parts of the world. Material and Methods: The data of all patients diagnosed with a primary ameloblastoma of the jaws in the Nether - lands in the period 1985-2010 have been retrieved from the nationwide histopathology and cytopathology network and registry in the Netherlands (PALGA). The pathology reports were screened and only those cases were included in which a distinct diagnosis of primary, histopathologically benign, intraosseous ameloblastoma was rendered. The average population in The Netherlands during this period amounted approximately 15 million people. Results: An annual incidence rate was approximately 1,5 per million population, the male-female ratio being 1.4: 1. The age at the time of diagnosis was 44.1 years. The average age in males was 46.3 years compared to an aver - age age in females of 41.3 years, the difference being significant (p≤ 0.05). The results were compared with those available in only a small number of publications worldwide. Conclusions: There is no strong evidence for significant differences of the true incidence of ameloblastomas worldwide, neither for a gender predilection. The diagnosis is generally made at a somewhat lower age in women; this phenomenon is even much stronger in the Black population, irrespective of gender. No proper explanation for this finding can be provided. | en_US |
