A juvenile pleomorphic adenoma of the palate

Salivary gland tumors in children are rare; involvement of accessory salivary glands is exceptional. We report a case of pleomorphic adenoma of the palate in a child (an 8-year-old girl) addressed by her dentist for discovering a swelling in the palate. Clinical examination revealed a firm, non-tend...

description Salivary gland tumors in children are rare; involvement of accessory salivary glands is exceptional. We report a case of pleomorphic adenoma of the palate in a child (an 8-year-old girl) addressed by her dentist for discovering a swelling in the palate. Clinical examination revealed a firm, non-tender, nodular swelling in the left hard palate, measuring 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm, situated adjacent to the upper left second molar. Physical examination did not show signs of inflammation or surface ulceration. Oral cavity computed tomography scan did not show bone lysis. The tumor was removed with negative margins. No recurrence was noted. We aim to describe the clinical, radiological features, as well as the management of this rare localization of pleomorphic adenoma.
