- - Schwannomas are benign tumors that arise from Schwann cells, with vestibular schwannomas being common in ENT, although rare cases exist in the head and neck region.
- - A 13-year-old girl had a chronic swelling in her left cheek that caused aesthetic concerns, and an ultrasound identified the growth as a subcutaneous cyst.

Article Synopsis
- Pleomorphic adenomas (PAs) are the most common benign tumors of the salivary glands, peaking in incidence between ages 40 and 60, and occurring more frequently in females.
- These tumors primarily develop in the parotid gland (about 80%) but can also arise in minor salivary glands, especially in the palate.
- The report discusses two unusual cases of PA in minor salivary glands, including an 83-year-old man with a lip swelling and a 45-year-old woman with a palate lesion, both diagnosed through histopathological examination after surgery.
