Lymphoepithelial cyst is thought to arise from the entrapment of salivary epithelium in lymphoid aggregates during embryogenesis. Such lesions are not common. It has been noted that there is a close association between the oral mucosal lymphoid tissue and the secretory ducts of minor salivary glands which is recognized as "Duct-associated lymphoid tissue" (DALT). A case of lymphoepithelial cyst with histologically documented close proximity between the excretory ducts of the minor salivary gland and lymphoid tissue in the cyst wall suggesting a DALT-like structure is presented.
