Abstract
Papillary cystadenoma of the minor salivary glands is a rare benign tu mor that clinically resembles a mucous cyst. We demonstrate its histol ogic features and differential diagnosis by a case report. Benign and malignant neoplasms of the minor salivary glands are not well acknowle dged in the dermatologic literature, but should be considered in the d ifferential diagnosis for mucous cysts.
