Abstract:

 

Purpose: This review study presents literature review and discusses the clinical significance of Adenomatoid Hyperplasia; a commonly misdiagnosed lesion. This rare entity has been seldom presented and is not well enough described in the literature. 
Methods: Only 15 reports with 95 cases could be attained during the online literature search using the keywords: Adenomatoid, Tumor, Hyperplasia, Minor salivary Glands. 
Results: Data revealed a tendency towards the male gender. Age distribution of patients did not reveal a tendency towards a specific age group but presented a peak incidence in the 4th and 5th decades.  Location data revealed a tendency towards the palate, especially the hard palate. Most of the presented cases were asymptomatic and the most common initial diagnosis made was salivary gland tumor. 
Conclusion: Adenomatoid hyperplasia of the oral cavity may resemble a wide range of pathologies. In order to differentiate and to achieve a correct diagnosis, histological evaluation is fundamental.
