[Tumors of the soft palate and the palatal vault. Our experiences].
The palate neoplasias are rare and come from either the minor salivary glands or the stratified epithelium. The malignant tumors of the hard palate are present 3-4 times more frequently than the malpighian carcinomas which, on the contrary, are prevailing at the soft palate. The malignant tumors of the palate may be located or extended to the neighbouring anatomical structures. The application of extended surgical operations for their treatment often creates great anatomical deficiencies which need the application of a reparatory intervention for restoration. We present, in this study, our experience with 6 benign and 8 malignant tumors of the hard and soft palate that we treated through surgical operation.
