Salivary gland tumours constitute about less than 4 % of all head and neck tumours. Pleomorphic adenoma, also called benign mixed tumour, is the most common tumour of the salivary glands. About 80-90 % of these tumours occur in the major salivary glands mainly parotid gland and 10 % of them occur in the minor salivary glands. The most common site for pleomorphic adenoma of the minor salivary glands is the palate, followed by the lips and the cheeks. Other rare sites include the floor of the mouth, tongue, tonsil, pharynx, retromolar area and the nasal cavity. Here, we are reporting a case of pleomorphic adenoma of the minor salivary glands of the soft palate in a 36-year-old Indian female. The mass was removed by wide local excision with adequate margins under general anesthesia. There was no recurrence seen after a follow-up period of 1 year.
涎腺肿瘤约占所有头颈部肿瘤的4%以下。多形性腺瘤，也称为良性混合瘤，是涎腺最常见的肿瘤。这些肿瘤中约80%-90%发生于大涎腺，主要是腮腺，10%发生于小涎腺。小涎腺多形性腺瘤最常见的部位是腭部，其次是唇部和颊部。其他罕见部位包括口底、舌、扁桃体、咽、磨牙后区和鼻腔。在此，我们报告一例36岁印度女性软腭小涎腺多形性腺瘤病例。在全身麻醉下通过广泛局部切除并确保切缘足够完整将肿物切除。随访1年后未见复发。
