Abstract

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the salivary gland is the "most common salivary gland tumor. This tumour inhabits mainly parotid, palatal minor salivary glands and the submandibular salivary glands. Central involvement of the mandible or maxilla is very rare. Here we report a case of central mucoepidermoid carcinoma associated with systemic lupus erythematous in a 25 year old female patient, who was managed by surgery.


Keywords- Mucoepidermoid carcinoma, salivary gland, mandible, systemic lupus erythematous, surgery.
