Tumors of salivary glands are very rare in children overall, and rarely in minor salivary glands. Among them pleoomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common benign tumor of salivary glands in children and it acounts 60% of all salivary neoplasms, frequently found in major salivary glands (85 %) and rarely in minor salivary glands (10-15%). PA appears as painless oval mass, elastic consistency and smooth surface. It characterized by slow evolution of growing. The diagnosis can be confirmed only by histopathological features, after total excision of the lesion.
This case report present the uncommon case of the formation well circumscribed in upper lip region, nearby the frenulum labii oris superior in 10 years old school girl. After clinical intraoral examination of the formation approximately 2cm in size the surgical treatment has been done and histopathologic analysis resulted as PA.
Long term follow-up examination is necessary due to possible recurence or malignancy alteration.
总体而言，儿童唾液腺肿瘤非常罕见，小唾液腺肿瘤更是少见。其中，多形性腺瘤（PA）是儿童唾液腺最常见的良性肿瘤，占所有唾液腺肿瘤的60%，常见于大唾液腺（85%），很少见于小唾液腺（10 - 15%）。PA表现为无痛性椭圆形肿块，质地有弹性，表面光滑。其特点是生长缓慢。只有在病变完全切除后，通过组织病理学特征才能确诊。
本病例报告呈现了一名10岁女学生上唇区域、靠近上唇系带处形成界限清楚肿物的罕见病例。对大小约2厘米的肿物进行临床口腔内检查后，实施了手术治疗，组织病理学分析结果为PA。
由于可能复发或发生恶性改变，需要进行长期随访检查。
