title: [Sialadenoma papilliferum].
abstract: In this article we described a case of sialadenoma papilliferum detected in an old lady during a complete clinical survey for unrelated causes. This tumor did not produce any symptoms. The sialadenoma papilliferum was first described as a separate entity in 1969. Since several other reports have been made but the tumor is definitely rare, usually an accidental finding and most commonly localized in the mouth in the transition zone of soft and hard palate. Our case is the first published in a woman and as yet also the oldest. A survey of the literature is given.
