Pleomorphic adenoma of the palate: Clinicoradiological case report

Salivary gland tumors are a relatively rare and morphologically diverse group of lesions. Pleomorphic adenoma is a benign tumor of the salivary glands that consists of a combination of epithelial and mesenchymal elements. The tumor most commonly arises from the parotid (60-70%) or submandibular glan...

520 |a Salivary gland tumors are a relatively rare and morphologically diverse group of lesions. Pleomorphic adenoma is a benign tumor of the salivary glands that consists of a combination of epithelial and mesenchymal elements. The tumor most commonly arises from the parotid (60-70%) or submandibular glands. It develops less frequently in a minor salivary gland, presenting as an intraoral mass dependent on the palate. Pleomorphic adenoma rarely causes bony erosion or destruction. Here, we present a case of benign pleomorphic adenoma of the minor salivary gland originating on the palate causing bony erosion of the alveolar ridge. The clinical, radiological, computed tomographical and histopathological aspects are discussed.
