Minor salivary gland neoplasias are not age defined, as they can occur at any age. However, it is more likely for young patient to have benign tumors and older patients to have malignant neoplasms. The palatal tumors are more cellular and often grow rapidly than its major gland counterparts. The not- infrequent absence of connective tissue capsule or its incompleteness, infiltrate tumor growth, and a plane of ready cleavage make total excision of the tumor compulsory to minimize recurrence. We hereby are presenting a case of Pleomorphic adenoma of the minor salivary gland of palate. MRI was done for checking the extension of the lesion and its infiltration in nearby tissues. local excision was rendered as treatment for the lesion and there was no recurrence observed till 1 year after the surgery.
