Abstract

Myoepithelioma is a rare benign tumor. There are controversial subtypes that lack myogenic differentiation. A 2003 literature search listed only 12 cases of myoepithelioma of the maxillofacial region. This paper describes one case of pediatric myoepithelioma as an addition to the previously documented cases, and a review of the literature.
