Pleomorphic adenoma (mixed benign tumor) is one of the salivary gland tumors affecting both major and minor salivary glands. Parotid gland is the most commonly affected of the major group, and palate is the most common site of the minor salivary glands. In addition to the major salivary glands, they may also occur in the salivary glands of the hard and soft palate. We present a case of a pleomorphic adenoma of the palate.
