Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) of minor salivary glands accounts for less than 3% of all head and neck tumors. It is a benign tumor. Palate is the most common site followed by upper lips. Tongue is an unusual site. We present a case report of a 35-year-old male patient who presented with a mass in the ventral surface of the tongue that was diagnosed as PA on FNAC and was treated by surgical excision. Patient was followed up and no recurrence was noted.
小唾液腺多形性腺瘤(PA)占所有头颈部肿瘤的比例不到3%。它是一种良性肿瘤。腭部是最常见的部位,其次是上唇。舌部是不常见的部位。我们报告一例35岁男性患者,其舌腹面有一肿块,经细针穿刺抽吸活检(FNAC)诊断为PA,并接受了手术切除治疗。对患者进行了随访,未发现复发。
