title: Canalicular adenoma of the palatal mucosa.
abstract: The clinical and histological features of a canalicular adenoma occurring in the palatal mucosa of a 79-year-old male are described. The management of the case-prompt referral to a specialist centre, histological confirmation of complete excision and an uneventful postoperative course-illustrates the correct procedures for what may be regarded as a cure of this neoplastic disease.
