چکیده
Sclerosing polycystic adenosis (SPA) is a rare, newly-reported lesion of the salivary glands. Most cases occurred within mayor salivary glands and were frequently confused with other salivary gland carcinomas such as acinar cell carcinoma. We report a case of SPA within the submandibular gland in a 63-year-old woman.
