“…The tumor can present ulceration, hemorrhage, mucus extravasation, inflammation, and pigmentation. The clinical presentation and patient age in our case are in agreement with previous reports 6,10 : the patient was over 60 years of age and the lesion was present on the upper lip. However, the patient reported a long period of evolution and limited growth.…”

“…It occurs more often in adults, and the upper lip is the most affected site (70% of the cases), followed by the buccal mucosa and palate [3][4][5]8 . The occurrence of multifocal tumors of minor salivary glands is rare; however, this phenomenon has been reported in the literature, especially in the upper lip [8][9][10] . The treatment of choice is enucleation, and recurrence is rare.…”

AbstrAct:Canalicular adenoma is a rare benign tumor of the minor salivary glands that is the most prevalent in older adults (mean age, 60 years). The upper lip is the most commonly affected site, followed by the buccal mucosa and palate. It presents as a nodular lesion without a tendency for recurrence. Here, we describe a case of canalicular adenoma presenting as a nodular, painful mass in the upper lip of a 62-year-old man with a history of trauma. Fine needle aspiration biopsy yielded inconclusive results but excluded malignancy. The lesion was enucleated, and a definitive diagnosis of canalicular adenoma was established by histological and immunohistochemical analyses. No signs of recurrence were noted at the 8-month follow-up examination. The case emphasizes the importance of differential diagnosis of nodular lesions in the oral mucosa for appropriate treatment and histological analysis for definitive diagnosis.

“…WHO reports that these tumors are localized to the upper lip in 90% of cases, and, in almost all cases, they occur in patients over 50 years of age. An extremely rare case of a multiple canalicular adenoma was reported by Queiroz et al 10) , a canalicular adenoma arising from the palate was reported by Smullin 13) , one arising from the buccal mucosa was reported by Yamada et al 14) , and one arising from the parotid gland was reported by Rossiello et al 11) ; our case is typical of canalicular adenomas, but still remains a rare case. In our laboratory of Tokyo Dental College, the present case is the only one among 18,093 cases of all lesions from 1996 to 2004.…”

This case report describes a rare case of canalicular adenoma arising in the upper lip of a 61-year-old male patient. Macroscopic examination of the tumor revealed a welldefined, smooth, firm, elastic hard, round nodule with a diameter of 1.0cm. The cut surface was white. Histopathology showed that the tumor was an encapsulated mass with a complex cellular pattern of anastomosing duct-like or trabecular structures lined by a single layer of tall columnar epithelial cells, which were embedded in a loose, fibrous, and highly vascular connective tissue stroma. The tumor cells were immunoreactive to AE1/AE3, CK19 and S-100, were partially positive for CK7, CK8, GFAP and PCNA, but were negative for SMA, CK13, CK14 and vimentin.

“…It is a relatively rare neoplasm, but it is the second (or the third) most common tumor among benign tumors of minor salivary glands [4,5]. A few cases of multiple foci of CA have been reported in the literature [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. We present herein a new case of multifocal canalicular adenoma of the upper lip, involving a 57-year-old woman, and discuss histological and immunohistochemical characteristics of the tumor.…”
