Abstract
Salivary gland tumors are rare in children and the incidence differs from the adult counterpart. When salivary gland tumors do arise in children, they preferentially affect major salivary glands, but minor salivary gland tumors have also been reported. This is the first case report of palatal pleomorphic adenoma in a 13 year-old child. The oral mucosa covering the lesion was intact. Occlusal radiograph revealed no bony destruction. Incisional biopsy was performed on the site. The biopsy showed several ducts which were lined by cuboidal cells. These ducts were surrounded by myoepithelial cells, some of which had the plasmacytoid appearance. Differential diagnoses of a palatal swelling in children and management of pleomorphic adenoma at the palate are also discussed in this article.
