Resumo (EN)
The pleomorphic adenoma or mixed benign tumor is the most common benign neoplasia of the salivary gland in human beings. It preferentially occurs in the superficial lobe of the parotid gland. In the oral cavity, associated with the minor salivary glands, it has a greater predilection for the palate region, with slight predisposition in women between the 3rd and 4th decades of life. The radicular cyst is an odontogenic inflammatory cyst resulting from pulp lesions caused by traumas or caries. In spite of being relatively common, there are no reports of association with salivary gland tumors. The aim of this work is to report a case of a 36-year-old woman patient, who presented with synchronous development of a pleomorphic adenoma and periapical cyst within the same region. The option taken was to perform enucleation of both lesions, followed by local curettage. The patient has been followed-up clinically and radiographically for around 18 months without signs of recurrence.
