Abstract

Background and Clinical Significance: Palatal swellings may originate from various pathological disorders. These swellings may include congenital or acquired factors. The posterior hard palate, which contains many minor salivary glands, is a common site for such swellings. Case Presentation: We present a rare case of intraoral palatal myoepithelioma in a 45-year-old Egyptian male with a significant history of smoking. Detailed clinical, radiographic, and operative findings are discussed alongside histopathological evaluation, surgical management, and postoperative outcomes. This case highlights the importance of considering myoepithelioma lesions in the differential diagnosis of posterior palatal swelling. Conclusions: Palatal myoepithelioma is a rare but important benign salivary gland tumor that may resemble multiple other intraoral lesions. A complete clinical, radiographic, and histological investigation is required for a definitive diagnosis. Complete surgical excision achieved a favorable outcome. Increased awareness and reporting of this unusual pathology are critical for deepening knowledge and guiding clinical decisions.
