Özet
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is the most common malignant tumor of the salivary glands. These tumors occur commonly in the major salivary glands, especially the parotid, and they are the most frequently located in the palate intraorally. The similarity between MEC and other odontogenic cysts in the mouth is a critical situation that needs attention in clinical examination. Early diagnosis is very important in the diagnosis of asymptomatic growth, reaching very large sizes easily, its recurrence potential, and malignant character. The treatment and prosthetic rehabilitation of MEC are specified according to histopathological grade, location, and invasion pattern of the tumors. The purpose of this case is to present a 19-years-old female with high-grade MEC of minor salivary glands at the palate.
