Myoepithelioma is a rare benign tumor of the myoepithelial cells, constituting 1.5% of the salivary gland tumors with equal frequency in men and women. It occurs in the range of 9-85 years. It is most common in the parotid gland and the hard and soft palate. It may contain acellular mucoid or hyalinized stroma and the tumor cells are unable to form ducts (None, <5-10% or <1 duct/HPF). A case of myoepithelioma has been reported.Keywords
