ABSTRACT
The Polymorphous Low Grade Adenocarcinoma (PLGA) is a common minor salivary gland carcinoma. It mostly affects the buccal mucosa and retromolar region, but the palate is an unusual site. As the carcinoma is low grade the recurrence is also uncommon. Our patient had a PLGA initially in the palate which was treated initially through surgical management but had a recurrence after four years. Hence we planned a partial maxillectomy along with level I nodes. Post-operatively follow-up is successful till date. So the management of a recurrent PLGA through careful surgery and post-operative follow up with prosthetic rehabilitation is discussed in this article... (AU)
