  • Title: Papillary cystadenoma arising from the upper lip: a case report.
    Author: Matsuzaka K, Kokubu E, Takeda E, Tanaka Y, Shimono M, Inoue T.
    Journal: Bull Tokyo Dent Coll; 2003 Nov; 44(4):213-6. PubMed ID: 15103919.
    Abstract:
    We report a rare case of a papillary cystadenoma arising from the upper lip. This tumor was not distinctly encapsulated and had proliferated replacing the ductal epithelium. Mast cells were found not only in the stroma but also in the oncocytic epithelial layer. There was a strong immunoreaction with mitochondrial antibody in the epithelial layer. Only one case (0.9%) of papillary cystadenoma has occurred among the 110 benign intraoral salivary gland tumors seen in our hospital from 1966 through September 2003.
