Adenocarcinoma NOS of a minor salivary gland is a type of tumor that does not meet the histological requirements that it needs to be categorized within other salivary gland tumors. Because of their infrequency, there is little known about these tumors. The aim of this paper is to report the case of a 68 years old male patient, who developed an adenocarcinoma NOS arising from a minor salivary gland in the palate. The local invasion and destruction, as well as its behavior under radio and chemotherapy is discussed.
