ABSTRACT
Pleomorphic adenoma are benign neoplasms that typically occur in the major salivary glands. Uncommonly, they arise in minor salivary glands, which account for only 10% of all reported salivary gland pleomorphic adenomas. Minor salivary gland tumors are clinico-histopathological curiosities and arise from glands scattered throughout the oral and pharyngeal mucosa. The cheeks, lips and gingiva are rare sites of occurrence. We experienced a case of a 68-year-old woman who presented a 45-years history of a left cheek mass. The pathologic diagnosis was pleomorphic adenoma. We removed the mass intraorally and obtained good postoperative results. We report this case with a review of literature.
