Through 1985, only 42 other cases have been reported in the literature, 3 malignant and 39 benign. Fewer than 100 cases had been reported through 1993. The number of case report of myoepitheliomas is increasing as pathologist have become more aware of their existence. This uncommon tumor is most&#13;
commonly diagnosed in parotid gland and in the minor salivary glands of palate. The complex and varied&#13;
morphologic expression of neoplastic myoepithelium have attracted numerous investigators who have presented valuable but often contradictory data. In our opinion these tumors are still a rare variety because they are simply not well recognized. Together with the review of literature, consideration are presented on the clinical evaluation, differential diagnosis and treatment of this lesions.&#13;
