Abstract

Adenomatous hyperplasia of the salivary glands usually affects the parotid gland. Within the oral cavity, palate is the most common site. However, this lesion occurs in adults and till date no case has been documented in neonates. Angiolipomas are a variant of congenital lipomas which undergoes vascular proliferation. Angiolipomas of the oral cavity have not been documented till date among neonates. We herein report the first case of combined angiolipoma of the floor of the mouth with adenomatous proliferation of the minor salivary glands in a neonate. The case was managed through surgical excision, and the follow-up was uneventful. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis. � 2021, The Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons of India.
