Light micrograph through human tissue showing a pleomorphic adenoma. A pleomorphic adenoma is a benign salivary gland neoplasm. It is the most common type of salivary gland tumour. These tumours predominately affect the superficial lobe of the parotid gland. Although pleomorphic adenomas are benign (non-cancerous), they do have the potential to turn malignant (cancerous). | |
