Abstract
Sialoliths are calcareous concretions causing obstruction of a salivary gland or its excretory duct, mainly in the submandibular gland. Only 2% occur in minor salivary glands. Man, 80, complained of a small asymptomatic nodular lesion on the left buccal mucosa. Palpation revealed the presence of small endophytic nodule. The preliminary diagnosis was traumatic neuroma. Excisional biopsy was performed; the macroscopic examination showed a rounded lesion of firm consistency with calcified material inside.
