Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is one of the most common benign lesions of the salivary glands, with a majority of them occurring in the parotid gland. PA has origin from the epithelial and mesenchymal elements and can arise from both major and minor salivary glands. Among minor salivary glands, the palate is the most commonly affected site, followed by lips, cheeks, gingiva, the floor of the mouth, and tongue. PA of the upper lip without intraoral mucosal involvement is a rare entity. In this article, we report a case of PA of the upper lip in a middle-aged female patient and its surgical management with a novel technique. During six months' postoperative review, the patient showed excellent wound healing with very minimal scar formation.
多形性腺瘤(PA)是涎腺最常见的良性病变之一,其中大多数发生在腮腺。PA起源于上皮和间充质成分,可发生于大涎腺和小涎腺。在小涎腺中,腭部是最常受累的部位,其次是唇、颊、牙龈、口底和舌。上唇PA不累及口腔黏膜是一种罕见的情况。在本文中,我们报告了一例中年女性患者的上唇PA及其采用新技术的手术治疗。术后6个月复查时,患者伤口愈合良好,瘢痕形成极少。
