Abstract

Abstract We present a report of bilateral mandibular radiolucent lesions that were diagnosed as synchronous ameloblastoma and odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) in a 75‐year‐old female patient. To the best of our knowledge, the simultaneous occurrence of ameloblastoma and OKC of the jaws, as contralateral lesions, has not been previously reported.
