Ultrastructural observations were compared for three different zones in a case of peripheral ameloblastoma, namely: the deep tumor islands, the “altered” surface epithelium overlying the tumor, and the transitional area between “normal” and “altered” covering epithelium. The possible origins and the behavior of this condition are discussed.
