Abstract: | Purpose To investigate and compare the demographic data, occurrence of recurrence and metastasis, and survival prognosis between ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) and metastasizing ameloblastoma (MA), based on appropriate and currently accepted eligible diagnostic criteria, in a systematic review of the literature. Methods An electronic search was undertaken, last updated in December 2021. Eligibility criteria included publications having enough clinicopathological information to confirm the diagnosis of these tumors. Results Seventy-seven publications reporting 85 ACs and 43 MAs were included. Both tumors were more frequent in mandible and showed different clinical profiles regarding patients' sex and age. There was no difference in the estimated cumulative survival between patients diagnosed with these tumors. Metastases mainly affected the lungs, followed by cervical lymph nodes. The mean time between the first metastasis and the last follow-up was higher for MA (p = 0.021). In addition, MA patients remained alive longer than AC patients after the first metastasis diagnosis (p = 0.041). Considering only the cases that metastasized, a higher ratio of AC patients died in comparison to MA patients (p = 0.003). The occurrence of recurrence was associated with a conservative primary treatment with both AC (p < 0.001) and MA tumors (p = 0.017). Multiple recurrent events were associated with conservative primary therapies with MA (p < 0.001) but not with AC (p = 0.121). Conclusion In addition to some demographic differences, ACs that metastasize present a worse prognosis than MA. As conservative procedures are associated with multiple recurrent events, this treatment modality should be avoided for both tumors. |
