Abstract
Authors present a case of 12 year old boy and describe clinical and pathologic features of myoepithelioma originating from the soft palate. Neoplastic cells with myoepithelial differentiation are fairly common in salivary glands tumors. However, bening salivary gland neoplasms composed exclusively of myoepithelial cells are rare; they account for fewer then 1%.
