Abstract
This report is the case report of a 48-year-old woman who referred to our hospital complaining of a mass at the left maxillary tuberosity and slight trismus. CT and MRI imagings showed a tumor like image with bone absorption of the left maxillary tuberosity. Under general anesthesia, the lesion was excised. Histopathological examination showed low grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma. There is no sign of recurrence or metastasis of the tumor in 5 year after the surgery.
