Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common neoplasm of the salivary
glands and is most commonly located in the parotis followed by the
submandibular glands. Its localization in the minor salivary glands is
mostly reported in the palate. Few publications report pleomorphic
adenoma cases located in the lip.
We present a 35-year-old male patient with a pleomorphic adenoma
located in the upper lip.
