Abstract
The cytogenetical findings in a cultured polymorphous low-grade adenoc arcinoma (PLGA) of the minor salivary glands are reported. The deviati ons observed showed similarities to those found in the only hitherto s tudied case originating in the minor glands. Both these cases, however , showed a picture completely different from that in the two reported cases of parotid PLGA, constituting the malignant component in carcino mas ex pleomorphic adenoma. The most probable reasons are believed to be aetiological differences.
