Abstract: A 71-year-old man complained of pain in the right angle of the jaw which had not been relieved by the extraction of a loose lower molar more than one month before. The microscopic examination of tissue from an ulcerated area of the gingiva in the right lower third molar region showed infiltration of the deeper tissues by aggregates of malignant squamous cells, the latter arranged concentrically around keratinized centers forming well-defined and prominent epithelial pearls.
