Pindborg and Weinmann, in 1958, just introduced the term KA. Later in 1992, the WHO categorized it as acanthomatous ameloblastoma with the presence of areas of keratinization. Only a handful number of cases are documented, and it has to be differentiated from other keratin-producing tumors for rendering appropriate treatment. This review aims to discuss a case report of KA which presented as a challenge to the clinicians. }, URL ={https://www.ijofb.org/article.asp?issn=2589-1723;year=2020;volume=4;issue=1;spage=22;epage=26;aulast=Viola;t=6}, eprint ={https://www.ijofb.org/article.asp?issn=2589-1723;year=2020;volume=4;issue=1;spage=22;epage=26;aulast=Viola;t=6} }
