Abstract

Pleomorphic adenoma is the commonest benign tumor of the salivary glands. It has rarely been reported arising in the nasopharynx. The treatment is most often surgical and requires complete removal regardless of its site, because of its risk of malignant degeneration. We reported a case of rare location of nasopharynx who was successfully removed by the oropharynx.
