Abstract :
Clear cell carcinoma of minor salivary gland is an exceedingly rare and a low grade malignant neoplasm. It represents approximately 1% of all salivary gland tumors and 0.2% of minor salivary glands. This paper presents a case of intra-oral clear cell carcinoma originating from the minor salivary gland of the palate in a 32-year-old female patient. This case underscores the significance of considering clear cell carcinoma in the differential diagnosis of oral lesions and highlights the necessity of thorough diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
