Abstract:
An account is given of a patient who had multiple canalicular adenomas in the upper lip and adjacent oral mucosa. A few months after these had been excised, several more tumors of the same type developed. Microscopic examination also revealed numerous tiny foci of adenomatous proliferation within otherwise normal salivary gland lobules. We suggest that this phenomenon represents a field neoplastic change although it appears to be benign.

Salivary Glands and Saliva
The salivary glands, of which there are three pairs known as the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands, play a crucial role in maintaining oral health and initiating the digestive process. Positioned near the ears, beneath the masseter muscle, the parotid glands secrete saliva into the oral cavity through the parotid duct of Stensen. Meanwhile, the submandibular glands, located on the floor of the mouth, secrete saliva through channels named submandibular ducts. The sublingual glands,...
