The odontogenic epithelia revealed various patterns, i.e.sheet-like, adenomatoid and follicular struc tures.The adenomatoid structures were composed of cuboid cells, and the pscudoluminal region was occupied by fine fibrous materials.The present case was pathologically diagnosed as adenoameloblastic odontoma.6 months have passed, and there have been no symptoms of recurrence.
