The BRAF p.V600E mutation is a common event in ameloblastomas but is absent in odontogenic keratocysts

ConclusionBRAF p.V600E mutations were frequent in ameloblastomas, as previously reported, but were absent in OKCs and dentinogenic ghost cell tumors. These results further confirmed the noninvolvement of BRAF in OKCs and suggested different pathogenic mechanisms involved in various odontogenic lesions.
