Abstract:
Papillary cystadenocarcinoma is a very rare malignant neoplasm of the salivary gland. We report a case of papillary cystadenocarcinoma arising from the minor salivary gland in the retromolar trigone of a 56-year-old female patient presenting intermittent hemorrhage from the oral cavity. We discuss the clinical and histopathological features of the papillary cystadenocarcinoma of the salivary gland with the review of the literature.
