Abstract
Carcinoma Ex Pleomorphic Adenoma (CXPA) is a rare malignancy of salivary glands. CXPA arising in minor salivary glands is extremely rare. CXPA is very difficult to identify before surgical excision except for pathologic examination. It is because the clinical features of many cases are similar to those of pleomorphic adenoma (PA). Pathological examination is still the gold standard for its diagnosis. Surgical ablation combined radiation therapy are still the major treatment modalities of CXPA. The purpose of this article is to present a rare case report of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma on minor salivary glands.
