Abstract

Pleomorphic adenoma is a commonest benign tumor of the salivary glands that has elements of both epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. It is most commonly seen in the parotid and submandibular glands. Infrequently it might present as an intraoral mass, of which hard palate is the commonest site. Hereby we report a case of pleomorphic adenoma of hard palate in a 26 years old female, who presented to ENT OPD with a mass over roof of oral cavity. Fine needle aspiration of the mass clinched the diagnosis of Pleomorphic adenoma. The mass was excised completely by transoral approach.
